Really appreciate all you do!!! 🙂

We do sign the game installer, we do not plan at the moment to sign all the binaries that are installed by installer: it's either too cumbersome because it would have to be done fully manually or requires special much more expensive solutions that allow for automation.

We are going to continue download binaries from GitHub, that's how we distribute engine.
