*some ideas for autor*
Chesterton's Father Brown once said that to hide a tree you just need to plant a forest. If you mention this quote in a conversation with Alivia, perhaps the bright idea will come to her mind that in order to stop hiding from her mother, you need to involve her in the "conspiracy" =)

Guys, if this is not a state secret, explain how the texts of dialogues are typed for visual novels? via the "voice-text" system? or how? I'm just always surprised by where so many spelling mistakes in the text come from, sometimes it's hard to understand what is being discussed. You have to do some kind of investigation by analyzing neighboring sentences. It seems to me that if you translate speech into voice, then it is possible that there will be such mistakes. How this is actually done - I don't know.
It seems to me that the speech recognition system reacts very poorly to local pronunciation dialects - generating difficult-to-understand verbal constructions.
here, for example, is a conversation between Ben and Alivia after Ben returned home from Vicky's birthday
(frame shows a view from the door of the house, Alivia is walking up the stairs, Ben is following her)
Alivia: Nothing much really. My way annoying because she wanted to come over... (there is no sence in that sentence. but after investigation you figure out what Alivia talked about Mia)

No, not really. I did not do a count, but IF there is a difference, it is minor and you will probably get a scene on the other route at a later time.
At some point you will be locked into a route (Corruption or Seduction), but we did not reach this point in the story yet. But even then I dont think that there will be much difference, so far BaiBai has treated both routes equally. (And this is the best way to do it, I remember that there are games here which decided to give one route more love than others, which just led to people being driven away when their route did not get content or even to cases where the other route was abandoned completely)
The files are pretty open to look at, here's an example:
They're typed out in Ren'Py coding, but with both my previous comment's and your guess, perhaps some of the dialogue is written via text-to-speech, and then it gets coded & pasted in later. However some of it makes it obvious that it's ALL typed in? So I really don't know, I've been keyboarding since a young age so I know that instinctive feeling of backspacing a typo, but it might be different if you're dealing with translating to another language.
Dealing with typos, with the Universal Ren'Py Mod, URM, I've made 44 text replacements. I've made some name changes to make them more familiar to me (Alyvia->Olivia, Viktoria -> Victoria, etc), but still many typos found and I never expect to find less in each update lol. But they're easy to correct when they obviously can't be anything else.
There is one replacement there that I will remove if I see it becomes an issue, archived -> achieved, since although archived is a word, I doubt it'd be ever used, so I changed it anyway ha.
Maybe another "archived" type change is necessary:
Doubt that 'cleat' will actually be used ever, so I'm replacing it with 'clear'.

Your laptop might just be too old. My pc is outdated and everything ran smoothly. What are your specs?
Sometimes with the way the Ren'Py is coded, it will stack animations on top of another (instead of closing out of them first), so I'd first suggest to Save and Reload (since you may be basically rendering multiple videos at the same time), but if that doesn't fix the issue, then it's could-be / probably what the other fella said, that your device may be outdated.

Does it have a gpu or does it only have integrated graphics? That could be the issue.
Fantastic game, a little too much text but hey that's my opinion. The path of seduction is better than corruption which is new in porn games which favors corruption path. Best of luck in 2025 DEV !

And I personally preferred the seduction path (not corruption) incomparably more

The seduction route is sooooooo superior tho. Julia, Viktoria mom, also has 2 scenes but i don't know how to get the bathroom one.
