The issue with using the premade saves from New Game is that all of the Push into Corner events are already done, and that's something I wanted to experience because I'm a new player, not a returning one. Also (and I don't know if this is a mechanic I'm not understanding) the exp requirements between your saves and a fresh save seem completely different? 

In your provided save from New Game, you need 61 total XP to get from lv9 to Lv10. In this screenshot of a game I played from scratch, I need double that amount of XP just to go from lv8 to lv9. It was essentially impossible to achieve the threshold needed to trigger the necessary event in Month 3. 

Your save:

Fresh file:

So yeah, it's possible to beat Month 3 and I HAVE beaten it using the New Game save, but I wanted to do it from scratch. Since I can't find a way to skip dialogue on the android version, I don't even know if I wanna try a third time, either.

Apologies for my asking, but is there any wiggle room at all to get to this point naturally? It just feels like maybe there needs to be some tuning if I can permanently brick my run with multiple save files because I didn't know I had to be a certain level to progress. I cannot tell you how much that took the wind out of my sails when I basically found out I had to restart the ENTIRE GAME in order to play it "right".
