That's a weird bug some players have been getting. We haven't been able to figure out what causes the issue because we can't replicate it on our end, and the lack of log files complicates things. Would you mind sharing more info? Like what OS you're using, maybe your specs, if you've gotten that issue in other novels before, or any other information that could help us find the cause. We've been talking to some players over here about possible solutions that worked for other novels, but so far nothing certain.I have downloaded the game from multiple file host sites and it doesn't open at all.
Im using Windows 10 on a 15-4690k and have never encountered this bug before and have played hundreds of renpy games.That's a weird bug some players have been getting.

It is possible that the issue is related to graphics cards and drivers, but so far we haven't been able to confirm it. While we were looking for possible explanations previously, we ran across the following discussion on Ren'Py's git page:Im using Windows 10 on a 15-4690k and have never encountered this bug before and have played hundreds of renpy games.
Would you mind sharing more info on your computer specs? Like we mentioned before, there are some people facing similar issues and on Ren'Py's git page they believe it to be a bug related to graphics cards, but nothing certain yet.This is the only ren'py game that i cannot open at all.
Thank you~hey dev, nice work on the update. but just wanted to come in and say that i am experiencing same issues as the previous update, where when i launch the .exe a wizard pops up and it just says if i wish to put the newly created files into the archive (same as if you saved the game the closed it). was just wondering if you found a way to fix that or still not yet

As far as we could test on a few different devices (different computers and phones) plus a few positive reactions from players, we believe the update itself doesn't have any problems.Momoiro no Ryuu Studios
Is there any problem with the update? Asking because:
This is the output I get trying to run the linux version from console:As far as we could test on a few different devices (different computers and phones) plus a few positive reactions from players, we believe the update itself doesn't have any problems.
However, considering the people unable to run the novel ever since the previous update, it seems that something is triggering a bug on the pc version. So far we had no reports of issues on android or mac.
Thank you so much for the info~This is the output I get trying to run the linux version from console:

Thank you~I'll be keeping an eye on this one for when the Futa x Futa content comes online, Played what's out so far and liking it, just waiting for my kinda content. Good work.

Yes, I was able to launch the game after removing this file.Thank you so much for the info~
Could you try deleting the "presplash.png" file from the game folder? If that fixes the issue, we can work on finding a solution or generate a new version without that feature to make sure it stops happening.
This also works, but the image is not centered and runs off the bottom-right edge of the screen. I'm playing on a small screen tho (1280x800), so it would be too large regardless.Thank you for the help~
Did that fix the issue for you? If we can confirm that solution for the people unable to play, we can do a hotfix.
Thank you for the confirmation! We're glad to hear that solved the problem~Yes, I was able to launch the game after removing this file.

It worked !! after deleting that.Thank you for the confirmation! We're glad to hear that solved the problem~
Your case matches what some users mentioned in other pages about a display resolution conflict (your screen is smaller than the image itself and the default code Ren'Py generates is not handling it correctly). We'll look for a solution for that issue, but as a hotfix, just removing the feature/file seems to be the easiest.

Sorry for the pings, we would love if some of the people that reported similar issues tested this as well. Could some of you try deleting the "presplash.png" file from the game folder to see if the game runs?
