That's weird! I'm just playing the version I downloaded from the .zip file when I bought the game. T_T (Idk if it matters but the zip I downloaded is TheFailureEvenDeathRejects-1.0-pc and I'm playing the TheFailureEvenDeathRejects.exe file. I'm not sure what you mean by playing in Renpy, clicking the .exe file is how I play all my Itch games.)

Thanks for letting us know and for providing these details. We appreciate you clarifying that you are playing the purchased .zip version through the .exe file.
We'll look into this issue further and check whether this glitch is happening for other players as well. If we find anything that could be causing it, we'll work on a fix. Thank you again for bringing it to our attention! ❤️
