This is actually an issue with Renpy and complex sandbox games such as this one. It may not be the best engine for such games.

When DC adds a new storyline, it needs new variables to be created/set. To avoid Renpy crashes when an unassigned variable is read, they are usually initialized at the beginning of the game. However when you load a save, any new variable is not set, and then if you try to use them (being in a scene that tests for the variable to check for new events or dialogues) the you have a crash. There are ways to avoid such conditions, that were implemented for example in Bright Past, however for some reason DC did not implement it in this game.

It is stated in the OP that the saves won't work, and that's how the game works. If you are unsatisfied with this, then I suggest that you pledge on DC's Patreon, and then maybe you can request that he implements compatibility features. However don't be surprised that releases take more time for no additional content.

To my knowledge (reading a post on their Patreon a while ago) they have implemented such a method. The problem is that part of the game has to be rewritten for it to work properly. One of the offending storylines, as I recall, is Erik's. But the Patreon's decide new content, and they haven't voted for it to be remade.

All of this is simply from memory from reading up about it, probably around the time the 0.19-0.19.5 dropped, so forgive me if I forget some crucial things. Or everything in-between.

this game starts to disappoint me. I don't want to talk about the length of the contents (even if after 4 months something more is expected), but about the management of the story. there is talk of the main story ... so I expect updates for Debbie, Jenny, Diane, women linked to the story of the MC's dad. instead no, the main story updates Maria, Josephine and Tina ... (Tina? ah yes ... a new minor character). this is what bothers me, disappoints me, DEV creates new characters with each update and creates a story and leaves out the historical and previously created characters. Debbie, Judith, Annie, Ronda, Coach Bridget, Principal Smith, Anna, Cassie, Liu, Mrs. Johnson are waiting for an update from the first version or almost. then there are others such as Mia, Roxxy, Jenny, Diane who need further updates. Instead today we have Tina, tomorrow I don't know ... we will have a Samantha then a Georgina ... in short, a new character and the "old" ones remain there to "fill themselves with dust".
