2Gb of Linux doesn't seem have enough room to unpack all of the game, so I'm still stuck; unfortunately, I haven't completely given up on trying the browser version. I looked through everything some more and decided to look into the console again. I noticed that the errors were showing up as links, so I clicked on them as they showed up, trying to find the exact thing causing what I thought was a butterfly effect of errors.Opening this brought me to a blank page with nothing but the error message that I think is the root of it all:I assume my computer is the "anonymous caller" here. Either that, or the game is showing up as anonymous. Either way, something's trying to access storage, and it can't. I cleared all cookies twice and made sure nothing on my computer was different from when the game was working. If it's my computer suddenly blocking the game from accessing cloud storage, is there a way I can make my computer allow the game to?

Moving on, I looked at the other three links in the JS console errors:In order, from top to bottom, the links sent me to these spots in (I'm assuming) the game code:

A line of "uncaught" code, whatever that is.

Code with the same error message as the game.

And, for some reason, code that doesn't seem to have anything in red, besides the "package" that I believe to be the save data that I don't have. However, the error link sent me to " callback(event.target.result); " instead of ' package/'.

Does any of this mean anything? Again, I apologize for your time, and hope this is helpful in any way. If anyone else is having a similar problem with their browser, maybe this could help them, too.

Also, I was looking through some more of the code, trying to see if I could glean anything else from the code, when I saw this: is "Module.locateFilePackage" the file data the game is trying to get?

Hi! Sorry to hear that you're still having issues.

I've had a look through the screenshots you took, and I think this is what's happening.

- The initial 403 message is because the index file (file that points to other files) associated with my game wasn't present. However, RenPy Web packages are like this by default, and they immediately point to a second file. Looking back through earlier screenshots you took, I can see that this is still working. When you tried clicking the link in the 403 message, you actually navigated to where your browser was looking for the index file on the itch.io server-- since you didn't have authentication to do that, it saw you as an "Anonymous Caller" and denied you access. I've manually relocated the index file so that this 403 won't show up in the future and cause anyone concern.

- "Uncaught Loading data file failed.Error" is the likely culprit. I've been unable to replicate it on a Linux + Chrome test machine though. The links you followed in the error message actually took you to the code to return the errors, not the errors themselves, which is unfortunate. I tried to do a search for the same error, but the only thing that came up for Itch or RenPy was your post, so I don't have much to go on.

I honestly still don't have a solution for this, sorry. It looks like it's on Itch.io's end, particularly with how your browser and their servers are communicating. If you have time, please try playing other RenPy games on the site and see if you run into the same issue. It'd be good to confirm where the error is.

Thanks again for your patience.

It's working now. Nothing on my side; Itch probably just didn't like your game your game for some reason.
