Wow, how this error can even happen...

The "module" is pickle/cPickle, and it have a "HIGHEST_PROTOCOL" attribute since almost its first version, decades ago. Plus, this attribute appear in a line that firstly try to access the "dump" attribute in the same module, what mean that it's not just a game that redefined a variable it shouldn't have, nor just a corrupted library.

What game give you this error, and is there other people on the game thread talking about this error ?

The game was called "The Thickening". I was playing on Android with the joi app. Everytime i saved it would happen, also don't know if this has happened to anyone else.

I was playing on Android with the joi app.

My first guess would be that Joiplay intercept imports for security reason ; in this case, replacing pickle/cPickle by a safer version.
But I know peoples who have no problems playing Ren'Py games with it. This while the error you get prevent Ren'Py to write most of its files ; the (manual and automatic) save files, but also the persistent file, and rpyc files when you add a mod. Therefore they would all have this error.
