Anyone cannot open the game on Windows? I could open it after the release, but now it dies every time I try to open the game (compressed version or not), maybe due to Window updates.

- Start date
Works fine for me, and I'm on the Insider Preview branch of Windows 10. Do you get any error messages when the game crashes?
Only clues are these messages from log.txt:
The following gl functions are missing:
- glActiveTexture
- glAttachShader
- glBindFramebuffer
- glCompileShader
- glCreateProgram
- glCreateShader
- glDeleteFramebuffers
- glDeleteProgram
- glDeleteShader
- glDisableVertexAttribArray
- glEnableVertexAttribArray
- glFramebufferTexture2D
- glGenFramebuffers
- glGetAttribLocation
- glGetProgramInfoLog
- glGetProgramiv
- glGetShaderInfoLog
- glGetShaderiv
- glGetUniformLocation
- glLinkProgram
- glShaderSource
- glUniform1f
- glUniform1i
- glUniform2f
- glUniform4f
- glUniformMatrix4fv
- glUseProgram
- glVertexAttribPointer
Is that the last part of the log file? Also, what video card does your computer have?
Can you attach the entire log file? I'm not sure if Renpy supports Intel integrated graphics, but the Radeon 500 series should be good to go. I'm using a Radeon RX 570 myself without issues.
The weird thing is, I could run 0.4 at the start of this month, but now I cannot. I got the same problem with other games, like Divimera.

I'd say you got a buggy graphics driver in one of the Updates. Quick way to test this:
- Double-Click the executable of the game
- IMMEDIATELY hold down the Shift-Key, until the game starts
- You should now see a debug-screen you can use, to switch to "Force Software Renderer"
- Click the "Quit"-Link in the bottom Left.
- Try to start the game without holding the Shift-Key and test if it runs now.
EDIT
Sorry, just realized MTT uses RenPy 7... there is no more Software-Renderer. Try "Force Angle Renderer" instead. It relies on DirectX instead of OpenGL.

I agree with Sarkasmus. I compared your log (spoilered in the quote to save space) to the log generated on my computer after running the game, and the logs are mostly the same until the line "Windowed mode." After that line, the log on my computer names the video card used and its capabilities. Yours doesn't seem to do that.

Well... not really. RenPy prefers OpenGL because it's providing more functionality than DirectX. You should still try to get the right Display-Driver. Preferably not through Windows-Update, since that is the most likely source for the faulty one.
It could be caused by the AMD GPU driver. But I may need to contact their support team for help.

I assume the son is a necessary evil in his mind. He needs to have someone to carry on his legacy / bloodline and to be his legacy he cannot accept anything beyond perfection (even though the dad himself is not perfect).
At least that is my take.

Sorry... Context?
*EDIT*
Oh, you just started the game. Why all her clothes were dirty is going to be explained as part of the story. But I have no idea what you mean by "What should they have gotten rid of years ago". Do you mean the Halloween-Costume she's wearing instead of ther dirty clothes?

Step "Well, I sort of ended up having to wash every clothes I have..."
Son "You're clumsier than you look."; "Been ten years or so since we've bought that junk, so I'm not surprised."; "I'll let dad know about it."
Seems like something was taken out?

Ah, yeah, that line is confusing. Well, as said before: Why ALL her clothes were dirty is going to be explained later. MC doesn't know the reason yet, so he calls her clumsy for not realizing that she has no more spare clothing.
But the premise was, that she had to wear the torn shirt, because the dryer broke down (she tells us this before the eating-conversation even starts). I think MC is referring to the broken dryer when he mentions the 10yo junk.

Wow. And here I went out of my way to talk around it, so I won't spoiler it for anyone...
