I appreciate the response. The sample projects I'm referring to are the "example projects" included with purchase (hopefully my screenshot here works okay)
Which give me this error log and closes the app
re: documentation/tutorials, I'd really recommend it. I see some people have inquired about here in the community topic in the past. Just reading names of the effects and not really understanding what they do/how the sliders are affecting them/how they interact with one another (I feel at least) leaves the user in the place where they just have to figure it out for themselves which I can't invest time trial and error mastering for a paid software that's supposed to help with a certain niche.
Definitely don't want to come across as cruel or anything. I think there's a cool tool in here but I can't figure out how to uncover it!
As far as I can tell there is no documentation or resources on how to use this tool. It's not very user friendly in that I feel like it would take many hours of randomly changing numbers to figure out what does what in what combinations. The sample projects, when opened, cause an error that crashes the whole application, so I can't even see an example of how it's used.
Glad I got it on sale at least cause I didn't waste more money than I did. Wish I could ask for a refund. Really bummed cause this seemed like it could have been cool or helpful. If I were you reading this I would wait to buy this until the developers provide some sort of resources for how to use it properly.
I've also posted a mashup tutorial of both Odd Hour's and yours (with credit!) so it's all in one place for folks to see. Hope that's alright!

thank you so much for the reply! And thank you for taking the time to look into this and get it working!
I did just test it out and it appears to work great!
Our local gamedev community is all learning Bitsy together this month and some of us were really curious about making collaborative projects, so this is super exciting. :)
Hello! I'm curious if the Bitsy Museum hack by odd-hours still works with the latest version of Bitsy?

I've tried to use it, and looked at the most recent posts about it (which are still from 2 years ago) and it seems like Bitsy's interface is different enough and the HTML files that get exported are different enough that this hack may no longer work.
Curious if anyone's tried it recently or has any tips on achieving the same thing (opening other bitsy files within bitsy files)

hmm! My guess of the top of my head is that if you have an antivirus or similar sort of protection running it may think the game is and "unsafe" application and refuse to open it. If there's a way to whitelist it on whatever antivirus (or windows defender) you have that may do the trick.
I *think* something similar to that has happened to me with games in the past where the games.just wouldn't open :(
