Hi there, I am very sorry to hear you ran into this problem. I'm afraid that I've never run into this on Mac or PC. I tried looking for some solutions online based on the error message you have recieved. 

The first thing to check is to see if you have permission to write to the folder where the save directory is location. 

From here you can try these following solutions:

Try to see if there was an issue with the intial installment/directory:

1) Delete the Game Folder
2) Delete your saves they are usual in your /user/ folder
3) Re-Extract the game into a New Folder

4)Try making a new save file from the start.

It seems there was an issue with a Ren'Py game having issue in this thread which I don't know might also be a possible issue?https://itch.io/t/738641/no-valid-save-location

Also found this solution of setting the path for the save files manually if you are using Windows.

1. Go to the folder where your game was extracted, right-click the ADWVillainsHeart.exe.exe file
2. Select "Send to->Desktop (Create Shortcut)". This will create a shortcut for the game in your Desktop.
3. Then, once created, right-click the shortcut, select Properties
4. Click the Shortcut tab
5. Then put the --savedir "{savepath}" directory in your directive after the target path in the Target field. For example, if you're saving it in the C:\GameSaves\ folder, you should add --savedir "C:\GameSaves" to it.
6. Run the game through the shortcut.

The game is long enough that I would not expect anyone to play it without saving ): I hope one of these solutions works for you. Thanks for trying out my game and feel free to write more details of the issue you are having if you want me to try and find more solutions.
