Security Issues

Identify any security issues raised by your software.

Since our game does not use network features, there are no concerns of outside attack during play.

This means our main concern is safeguarding against user error when it comes to save data. We need to make sure that the user doesn't accidentally overwrite system files with save data or attempt to load sensitive files. To do this, we will restrict the name of the save files and save and load data only within the installation location.

Since this is an open-source game, there is a concern of malicious users redistributing infected copies of the game. In an attempt to combat this, we will include a disclaimer on the game's page that will explain that other sites hosting the game cannot be verified and are used at the player's own risk.
