My apologies.
If it's not too much trouble, would you be willing to share your save data?
I'll try to verify if I can reproduce the issue on my end.
I received a save file from a friend and tried to load it, but it wouldn't open on my system...
Also, after testing it here, I couldn't reproduce the issue on my end, so I have a few questions:
・Was any special character used in the folder where you saved this game? (e.g., non-English characters)
・Regarding checking if the translation worked correctly:
Does this bug seem to occur when you get eaten and fall down?
Or does it only freeze during certain predator attacks?
I apologize for asking again, but please confirm these points.
