Read before playing:

• While the game does allow you to pause it is recommended that you avoid pausing or tabbing out during dialogue as there is a chance that this may cause the event sequences to break.
• In case windows defender detects the game as a threat it is a false positive. There is no malware or virus in the file. (I hope)
• There is currently no volume slider within the game itself so you might have to adjust the application's volume from your system sounds.

Download Instructions:

• Download the .zip file.
• Extract the contents of the .zip file.
• Click on "Aavaara.exe".
• In case a Windows Defender warning occurs you can click "More Info" and then "Run Anyway". Not a virus just a false positive.
• Enjoy!
