Can you even boot the game at all?
Try this: Hold Shift, and run the game (keep holding Shift until graphic configuration shown, like the image below) choose Auto in Renderer section, choose Screen in Framerate section. close the game / launcher, then run it again without holding Shift.

If you have anything like GeForce Experience, end that process.

Another suggestion was to try putting the game in a folder you yourself create (some suggest desktop) and see if it works there.
thanks for your kindly support, i would try your suggestion......
the game is force stoped in the midle of boot up, not in the midle of playing, if you wondering

Are the fixes on the front page still required? I remember seeing those there months ago... Is replacing the game's script file not breaking anything else?

Okay... Mind telling us what what operating system you're using and your system's hardware (CPU, GPU, RAM)?

A couple of minor notes, Renpy will fail to start on these systems with the following conditions:
Windows: if it's placed in a directory with a full path that isn't representable in the current system language (like a huge string of Japanese characters on an English System Language)
Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks: A bug in OS X 10.9 Mavericks prevents Ren'Py from starting when launched on a non-primary display. Until Apple fixes this bug, please launch Ren'Py from the the primary display.
Linux 64 bit: Would only fail if the game was built on Ren'Py 6.14 or 6.15, which I don't think is the case. I think the game uses 7.0.0, which is quite a few versions behind current.

Everything I can find out about ImportError('No module named _renpysteam',) does suggest a render failure.
It'll take a little time for the game to download but you can do something for me. Check these folders for the presence of libpython2.7.dll:
\lib\windows-i686
\lib\windows-x86_64
If those folders have it then it's more than a missing dependency. If it's missing then that's the issue. Just copying over the file from an existing, working Ren'Py game should fix it.
As it's a .dll, it is possible your security software intercepted it. Happens sometimes.

If we can't help, post your error up on , probably the best place for Ren'Py-related issues.
But hold off for a couple of hours while the game downloads to my system.

Why is it going to take a couple of hours?
I'm not willing to deal with VPN switching to circumvent MEGA's restrictions.
Everything else besides Mixdrop was throwing intrusion errors such as baconaces.
Mixdrop is itself slow on my end.

what's the difference from the heavy version to the light version?
How many people are going to ask this?
The only difference is a very slight decrease in image quality in the Lite version.
This alone chops the size down by roughly 4GB.
If hard drive space is a concern, there is also a compressed version that takes it further, all the way down to 690MB.

Also the heavy one is much less buggy

If people keep asking, then it should be clarified on the front page.

"Lite" is not a real word in English. It refers to "diet" or low-calorie and is used for marketing purposes in proper names. This could lead people to assuming it is a censored version being a "watered-down" version of the game. Not a, "less-heavy" version.

I can understand the confusion (even if I figured it out without issue). Just sayin'.

People could also search and see if their question was asked 2 or 3 times a week too... But no matter what we said on the OP, people would still ask, they will ask even if they question was answered 2 posts up from when they asked. We could call them 'big' and 'small' and people would still ask. There is no way to stop it.
