I've done a bit of testing and it looks like on every decision where you save and load after it will be bugged.
For future projects I'm moving to Unity. Possibly also another engine if a side project of mine works out. It's not, however, practical to switch engines for PAT when it's this far along. I can assure you nobody's as frustrated with the problems in the engine as I am, but they didn't emerge until I was past the point of no return with it.
It is still a minority of players who get the loading issues, so most people can play it; unfortunately I can't tell who will have the problem as it has nothing to do with the power of your hardware. It's some weird incompatibility with the code - I have a powerful desktop and an ancient mini laptop that struggles with Chrome, yet both machines can run the game just fine.
I've been working with a scripter to try solutions and we came up with some really clever ones to try to fix it. Unfortunately, nothing has really worked so far, but I haven't completely given up hope on resolving it yet.
DeseNuts72 I don't know if this would have anything to do with it at all, but on HTML versions you can get issues that sound vaguely similar if you have script blocking on in the browser. Could something else be blocking the scripts?
Hard to estimate exactly, but the game is primarily a harem game, while the NTR elements can be sort of pervasive around the margins if players are into that and want to allow that content. It should be a perfectly satisfying and complete game without it if you choose to ignore it, though. (That's the goal, anyway.)
Yeah, I've been trying to chase this up. I'm pretty sure this is a script issue and it's fixable. For now, try to avoid saving in those moments, I suppose, and a future release will have it fixed.

Sorry I don't have answer, but wanted to +1 this comment. Am also trying to play on Android with joiplay. No exe anywhere, and also get error when trying to use index.html
Please @ me if anyone has a fix!

If i can add my through about it, NTR is this one seems to have more focus on it than the previous game (own storyline and maybe even endings in the future)
So if u are in "NTR game" even if this is sold as a HAREM focus one u can surely enjoy it without feeling it too optional and if u are not, the previous game made a great separation between NTR and the main storyline without conflict or feeling be left out of some content and it seems to be same in this one.
Very glad you enjoyed it! No Shizu ending yet; I'm still working on that and waiting for the right inspiration to strike, but I did make a big new Shizu-centric scene in the latest patrons' release. I would have probably made that the ending, but mechanically it's more entertaining as something you can return to through the course of the game.
If the game still loads okay, then it's nothing to worry about. If you've got a bad save the only thing i can think of is that you've saved in an older version, even though it didn't sound like that in your description.
If it's a save from an old version, then the save is probably broken and you just can't load that one, but can still play the game otherwise. If you're getting this problem just generally when trying to load up the apartment, here's my FAQ answer to that:
Occasionally, when a new scene is loading, the loading may break and seem to simply be taking forever on a black screen, generally when trying to load the apartment. I know it's frustrating - it is for me too. Unfortunately this is because of a memory leak issue in the audio code used by the engine, not an issue in my own code, therefore there is no simple fix I can make for it. It doesn't happen on most systems, only a minority, and it doesn't have anything to do with how powerful the computer is - I just can't predict whether you'll get the problem or not. I have been working to try and find workarounds for the issue, but in the meantime my best advice is to download the alternative "loading bug" version, which is designed to reduce the effect, although it may not eliminate it entirely.

Really enjoy the premise, just bogged down with bugs. Couldn't get NTR photos to load, Shuzi last memory was almost all a black screen. I'll def. follow, just hope to play the version sans audio to see if that fixes it.
I've never had any reports of any bugs like that. Are you playing the Windows 64 version on a Win64 computer?

Yes to both. I found the link from your blog for the no music, and now they're working. At least the one save I loaded. Strange how music could cause the problem.

I also had an issue with the Old Docks memory of no eyes to click on, in the no music version, it works!
Honestly, that shouldn't really be connected to the alternative version at all. I suspect that you might have just had a weird faulty load of the game the first time, because there's nothing different between those scenes in the two different versions. If you tried the normal version again I think it'd probably work this time. I don't really know why it'd be doing that - probably something from outside of the game just interfering with it somehow.

It's not a random day and it definitely ends and forces you to start again for a reason. It will all make sense eventually...
