For anyone having problems of getting stuck in dialogue, in levels/rooms/areas, or mentioning that the gallery is locked after closing and reopening the game:
-Consider the game to be version 0.X.X as it's still being made so bugs that cause the game to lock up or get stuck are going to be there until the devs patch them out.
-If you get stuck in a level/room/area, press the F2 key on your keyboard (it may be a different F# key, test a few) and it should open a debug menu. There are a couple of these, but one of them lets you choose a scene/location, so if you got stuck on the beach then you could teleport back to the main map.
-The gallery needing to be unlocked again every time you start the game is not a bug necessarily, it's the dev not making it so it stays unlocked yet.
For other problems like a save not loading, that's a bug, and likely one that won't be fixed until the game is essentially at "release" version or a 1.X.X or something. There are no known workarounds yet unless someone wants to open up the game in whatever engine it's made in and try to fix the issues, though that is unlikely to happen for free.
So for now, enjoy what there is, and at least there's something there.
