The game window appears...then immediately closes. Can't play the game. I tried both .exe versions.

RenPy the underlying program I'm using for this requires:
"It is now required that a user's computer have OpenGL 2, DirectX 9, OpenGL ES 2, or WebGL to run Ren'Py. The model-based renderer requires OpenGL ES 3 or WebGL 2.
With these changes, there have been a few deprecations. Ren'Py no longer runs
on Windows XP."
- Hold down Shift while starting Ren'Py, or press Shift+G once Ren'Py has started.
- From the "Graphics Acceleration" menu that appears, choose the renderer to use.
- Choose "Quit", then restart Ren'Py.
Try those, failing that I can't really help you.
I tried holding shift while opening the game (even tho it should not be necessary since I have windows 10, not XP), and I get the choice between "Automatically choose", "Force GL Renderer", "Force ANGLE Renderer", "Force GL2 Renderer", and "Force ANGLE2 Renderer". Seeing as what you put before, I tried to click on Force GL2 Renderer, as that is what should be needed. Immediately after clicking on it, the window closed (I could not click on quit). Trying to start the game gives still the same problem and holding shift while starting the game gives me the window again with "Choose automatically" selected.
Have you played other Renpy games? Did you try the other render options? The only thing I can find is it maybe your graphic driver needs updating. https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/display_problems.html
