Hi! I'm on a Mac (High Sierra, 10.13.6), and just got the following:

[code]

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

Rollback didn't help, and ignoring it just caused the message to repeat with the "line" numbers going up.

The same bug appears to be happening on other routes in the same location (end of common route?); got this one when I picked a different book:

I'll check to see if this happens with all the routes.

Same for the others ; all of the error messages are below, in case it's helpful:

Saku,

Can you please give us a little more information about what's happening? When I recreated this error, it is caused by something *very* specific - that is, using an old save after the game journal has had changes made to it.

First, were you someone who had access to the game when it was in its beta stage (I apologize for having to ask but we had many beta testers from our Kickstarter and since everyone uses different names across different platforms, it's gotten difficult to know who is who).

Second, were you loading the game from an existing save rather than loading a new game? Renpy will pull save data from anywhere it can find it which means that saves you had in place from the demo, from beta, or any time from now will still show as valid save slots. These saves will throw this error 100% of the time.

Can you please try to load a completely new game, get yourself all the way to the end of the common route, and tell me if the game still throws this error?

In the mean time, I will try to confirm with some of our other Mac users whether they are also having this same problem.

Thank you!

Sure! I don't think I had beta access (I downloaded the publicly available demo, that wasn't beta, right?). I made saves within the demo, but was not using those - I downloaded the full game off itch.io and started from scratch. I deleted the demo just now and tried playing the full version again, loading from a save I made within it, but got the same error. I'll try playing the full version from scratch again and see if it works now that the demo has been deleted.

Saku32105 years ago(+1)

Ok, looks like that fixed it! The demo has to be deleted, and full game has to be started from scratch as a new game. Thanks for the help :)

Ah! Yeah, that sounds right. Renpy is *awful* about trying to pull old data from other versions of the game then imploding when it doesn't work. It's so frustrating!

So glad that worked - and thanks for posting this. If anyone else encounters this issue, I know what to suggest! <3
