powder-toy-jacob1-bin
The package downloads a modded version of The Powder Toy from a plausible project-related host (starcatcher.us, associated with the game's community) and an icon from its static asset domain; both are used as data or for building, with no evidence of malicious or remote code execution, and the source is a prebuilt binary mod from a known developer, not an arbitrary remote executable.
