What is "Illegal Character Path"?

I published my first text adventure (game book mode) and when I went to go play it an error message showed up saying "illegal character path" what does that mean? And how can I fix the problem?

I'd like to check it out, but I don't know where your game is. Can you provide a link? (Just to confirm, by "published", you do mean online?)

My suspicion is that you have an odd character somewhere, perhaps in the game title. But I won't know for sure without more info.

It won't let me post it online on the site, it says "file failed to load"

Can you paste here the path to the file you're trying to upload?

Or better, can you attach here the file you wish to upload? What is its title?


I suspect it's the name of your image (img:download (2).jpg). I'd rename it to have a name without the parens and without spaces (e.g. download2.jpg). Spaces in particular don't play well in web browsers.
