Not a bug. Saves from old game versions don't work, they never do, since the main story code is rewritten with every update.
If you happen to find a savegame from a previous version that does work ... lucky you. Then in that update nothing important was changed.

Someone mentioned giving 5 beers to Frank but I use a different method. Chat him up, give him the sunglasses and popcorn and get the nude pics of Katherine for him and you're BFF's. I prefer not to waste the alcohol to get him to like me.

That works of course too, there are several ways to get rid of him (you can also have others beat him up). I prefer the old style approach, you can grab all the alcohol while he's fighting anyway.
Aren't the sunglasses needed for Madison's penguin?

I forget. I haven't done that one in a bit. Pretty sure you can still reach BFF status with him without the sunglasses.
Sunglasses are completely optional for the penguin.

Old version? The fuck? I downloaded the game the very same day and never closed it. In the span of me playing it the saves stopped working. Unless in the two hours of me playing the game updated somehow, its a bug.

Well, mine work. I have no way of telling if you are loading old files or not except your word. But you can report it as bug in the official Eek forum. Remember to add the non working savegame.

I think I got stuck in a story arc because I started multiple story arcs getting in the way of each other. For Liz Katz I have to complete Franks performance, for Frank I need to complete something else first (which I can't figure out). All chars are standing outside waiting for something to happen and I can't find Derek. And their conversation options are limited. Either it's a dead (and therefore it can considered to be a bug) end or I missed something.

Thank you for replying. I have the game on Steam and I want to play it, but I've seen a lot of bug reports on Discord, so I thought I'd look here, but a lot of people here say they've encountered bugs too. I don't want to waste time downloading and playing the game when it's currently unplayable, so I guess I should wait.
Looks to me like you started Winter DLC content. Did you give misletoe and stool to Frank, so he can go outside?

Everyone wants that. Sadly the engine is very limited when it comes to that. Every piece of clothing has to be adapted for each character. Maybe they'll get us more once the bugs in the system have been cleared out (where I have to add that I didn't encounter any, but someone said after loading a game all chars were white), who knows?
And it really gets nasty if you want chars to actually change clothing during gameplay using script commands.

Thing is, a lot of people complain there are bugs because they can't figure out what to do next, or they are following a walkthrough from 6 years ago. The content and puzzles have changed over the years. There are definitely ways to get content locked, but that's by design and depending on the choices you make. You can't do everything in one playthrough. Most of the time, if something isn't working like a walkthrough says it's supposed to, or a character isn't doing something you think they should, it's probably because you missed something. But that's what the game is about, that discovery and figuring it out.
That's not to say that there are zero bugs. The new release introduced some, but Eek has been putting out updates regularly, and I would say the latest version is pretty stable now. Most of the "bug reports" are people who just want sex scenes and don't want to take the time to actually play the game, in which case I don't know why they want to play a sex game in the first place if they don't enjoy the "game" element of it.
You can also just play custom stories if you are only interested in the sex.

I agree with what you're saying, but I want to play House Party the same way I played The Witcher 3, Dishonored, or any other game with a lot of content. They released another update earlier today, but the reviews say the game is still unstable. I guess I'll wait a little bit longer, man because I have a feeling that the game is close to being playable.

There is no harm in waiting.
This game has been around since 2017 and has come a long way since. It will be around a little bit longer. Soon another DLC will be added.
ps: On a long term: if you enjoy it, consider to buy it on

or Steam. I think the devs deserve that much. It's often on sale, but they are also happy about getting half the price
