You're missing the point. I am at peace with the game being pirated. I got over that a few years back. My complaint is that this version isn't even worth pirating (it's a mess) but because we've lost the integrity of our QC team...it will now delay the release. I'll draw you a diagram if it helps!
The next time give each BETA tester a separate link if possible with something embedded which identifies them.
If you ever need a trustworthy tester, I'm willing to help. I program RenPY and have developed my own game in the past. I had someone try and patch my game in the past with cheats, so I programmed my game to auto-detect cheats and then alter it's own code so you could still play it, but it got harder with annoying alterations and fake variables to throw them off etc (this was a compiled program written in C). It was so much fun to read his angry posts to me later on after he discovered what i did.
Anyhow, I often fix errors (both spelling and coding) in RenPY games on my own, but sadly, I usually have no way to report them to the devs without paying via Patreon, and I am not very wealthy these days.
Not trying to get a freebe, I have LOTS of games to play I haven't gotten around to yet, but I like to help if I can.
Good game anyhow.
