EDIT: Saw this got fixed in the latest update, you are amazing!

Something about how discord is coded into this game is making it not run at all on sandboxie for me. I really like this game (I played it before I instituted this safety policy for myself) but I don't want to make specific rules just for it - is there a way you can change that so it launches like other ren'py titles? I have played lots of ren'py games with external discord links, but they normally don't interfere with the launching of the title. I'm not much of a discord enjoyer either but that's another matter. I am basically stuck on this game until that changes :(

Hello,

By not "run at all", can you embellish please.

Does the game open to the menu and then won't run (eg can't click start or interact with the main menu), does it open and then immediately close itself, open and then crash/go non-responsive, or you launch the program and then just nothing happens, just double click, nothing?

So initially it did not open at all it just kind of got stuck and then quit. Someone suggested I try the following: "Put an empty discord.rpy text file in the game sub-directory." This allowed it to open but then it got stuck in error messages. I force quit it, tried again to no avail and set it aside. But just now when I tried to open it to replicate the issue, it does seem that that fix worked - it just crashes the game if I click settings. The person who suggested the fix also said that the longer fix would be "remove the Discord stuff inside the screens.rpy file" - I assume the best person to mention that to would be you. I haven't play tested the game yet to see if it has any other issues but if it doesn't this might be good enough for me, but I just thought you should know about it and a fix would be awesome obviously. This is one of my favorite games on here so I am eager to jump back into it.
