Yeah, I've 'fixed' this issue like three different times, only to find a new problem with it the next release. I'd just skip it - you could try disabling the speedy group chat setting in your Preferences if you have that enabled (or you could enable it and try).
I'll re-tackle this issue next release.

There are several walkthroughs online. At the entrance there's also a give up button to move on, which won't cause you to miss any scenes or story content. And finally at the top right of the screen is the clickable word "Thoughts" that is kind of an in-game walkthrough.

It might be a device thing, but I haven't touched the free Android version in like 1.5 years. I know Renpy had a lot of specific Android issues that got fixed in later versions, which the paid version of Stranded in Space uses, so it could be some conflict with Renpy.
I assume this is happening after the sex scene with Claire during the family vacation flashback? After the sex scene, Celeste and the MC's father interrupts, and you're saying it crashes right when she appears?
Can't think of what could be causing it.
Close to two years ago, I put out updates on Itch and treated it like Patreon, which was communicated on the Itch page. Several games (many popular ones) do this on this website even to this day.
Ever since I launched on Steam (Oct 2023), I've been selling the game as a one-time purchase. If you've spent $15 on an Elysium version on Itch at any point (back before Steam it was $20), you'll have access to the files now. No additional purchases are necessary.
Back then I used to sell the Endurance version, which was $5. It was missing, at this point, close to 15 scenes. I'm not selling that version anymore.
