So my old bug-hunting habits reared their ugly heads and I took some notes of my playthroughs and when the game froze. I redownloaded yesterday, and here are my notes:

Shiloh route 1: Froze December 29th- when choosing to get lunch. Froze immediately. Perhaps an infinite loop?
I got an error for Lucas earlier. Kept the error log - went to party

Shiloh route 2: Did not go to party. Got the discussion with Kam and Adrian- chose to send away Kam. Was able to play through demo with no issues. No freezing.

Bae route: froze december 15th after 1 date. Got errors for Lucas - went to party

Bae route 2: Didn't go to party. Got love potion event- chose Bae. Was able to finish demo with no freezing issues

Jeremy route: Went to party, met Lucas. Got errors for Lucas, but game didn't freeze

Jeremy route 2: Got love potion thing, chose Jeremy. Chose not to go to party. No issues with freezing.

Everett route: Chose not to go to party. Game didn't freeze

Everett route 2: Went to party- got two errors for Lucas. Game didn't freeze

Pran route: Didn't go to party. Got love potion event-picked Pran. Finished demo with no issues.

Nate route: Didn't go to party. Got love potion event. Chose Nate. Finished demo w/ no issues

I think you guys have an infinite loop somewhere in the code, and I think maybe it's connected to the party since I've never had the game freeze on me when I didn't go to the party. I also got errors whenever I played the party but ignored them. I saved the error message if you're interested.

Oh, btw, I have a Windows machine- I'm running Windows 10.

Thank you so much for the detailed overview! We really appreciate it. The party event is actually a brand new addition that originally wasn't a part of the demo. The demo has had this freezing issue from the beginning, though. If the party does trigger it, it's' not the only thing that does. Maybe certain dates do.

I would like to see the Lucas error log, if you don't mind. Thanks again :>

Here you go! I got this error every time I went to the party with this download- I didn't get it with the previous download.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Thanks! Somehow the line that defined his stand-in name before he introduces himself disappeared in this build.

I played the Everett route and went to the party and was able to finish it all the way through with no freezing... so I'm pretty stumped on what it could be tbh. The way the error occurs makes me think it's an infinite loop somewhere that causes the program to crash, but I'm not sure.
