I save frequently... until I do not. On occasion I would suddenly find that I had not saved for hours in a row due to losing track of time. While usually I save compulsively every 1 to 5 minutes.All you need to do is load the game after the crash and select continue. It will load back right after that and continue where you left off. If you click load at the bottom is an "A". This is where auto saves are. Auto saves are automatic saves separate from manual saves that you can also go back to. After the crash an auto save is automatically made so you do not lose progress and can continue where you left off. Another way to notice is if you go back to the door it will have a different line than what you saw earlier and say something like "I do not want to go in there" meaning you saw what transpired in there and can continue normally.
I am not sure if you do the same but I save frequently when I play any game. Ever since playing Skyrim it is just a habit I have to save as often as possible, but also common sense so I do not lose my progress. Thankfully all renpy games have an autosave function which this game has as well.
A lot of people do not save as often as they should, and don't really think about the fact that renpy has built in autosave
So they might think they lost hours of unsaved gameplay in a crash and quit playing in anger. Without actually realizing that they lose nothing.
Also it looks like a bug until you start talking with people.
