Please stop creating more accounts and replying to each other. Have you ever heard of false positives???
The game is sourced from Steam and uses Goldberg-fork, a popular emulator used today. It's open source, if you suspect a virus, check everything inside yourself.
Dozens of P2P crackers rely on this source code. See? If you suspect a virus, download the source code and check it yourself. If you find any code containing a virus, please report it here:
All websites and P2P crackers use it, so if you find a virus from this emu, you just need to write with the title "I found a virus in Goldberg emu" and send it to several newspapers, you will certainly be recorded in the history of piracy, and all pirate websites in the world will honor you.

Thanks for your reply. I'm not the same person as Karkar. I made an account and replied here which disappeared. I included links in my first post and they disappeared so I thought I did something wrong and made a new one. So sorry about that and thanks for linking the github. The one from there has no detections at all:
I believe you that the .dll included with the game could be a false positive, but I think occam's razor applies here. Also, open source projects have distributed malicious code unintentionally before and I imagine that gaming related projects like this one don't have the same security scrutiny that others have. So I don't think it's unreasonable to be cautious here.
The 2026.05.18 version I shared above suffers from false positive warnings, as do some older versions. That's why they regularly update to avoid those annoying AV warnings. Emu is overseen by many responsible people, so it's quite safe; you can see who contributed to it.
yo what, is this normal
