In the original A:DI, changing the night number in your save file to an invalid number would trigger an easter egg. This would open a certain webpage in the game window to a domain not run by me with an insulting, if somewhat humorous message. While this was a horrible way for 12-year-old me to handle it even at the time, the page wasn't malicious when the game was released. Unfortunately, you can probably guess what happened in the time since, and the page is no longer safe.
Hence, I'm delisting the game for the time being until I'm able to correct this issue. I would have gotten to this MUCH sooner if I had been more proactive about this (and if I had been more active on Game Jolt), but alas. For now, previous builds of the game will also be removed from the site until they can be rearchived elsewhere. If you want to play Abandoned: Discovery Island, please wait until it gets reuploaded.
Once again, I would like to sincerely apologize for anyone affected by this issue. I would discourage playing previous builds of the game in the meantime, and do NOT tamper with your save file.
