Construct 3 HTML Fails to Load (Update) Incognito mode issues

Hello,

I know I just posted on this topic, however, my original issue has evolved enough that I thought I should post a new topic. 

Upon trying to load my HTML Construct 3 game file on Google Chrome on itch.io, a few things can occur:

  1. Most commonly, the game displays the Construct 3 loader which fully loads, then the screen goes black and no further loading occurs. In this circumstance, I can open the inspect element tool and see that hundreds of red errors have occurred in the console section. "Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Failed to fetch" is the most common error; it occurs hundreds of times each time I try and fail to load the game. "Error loading resource:  TypeError: Failed to fetch" is also very common. The number of errors seems to fluctuate each failure, for example, I had 1433 errors last time, but I've had closer to 600 as well. 
  2. If I repeatedly reload the page, the game can sometimes load fully and play properly. This happens maybe 10% of the time, and happens more often if I don't have a save game.
  3. Sometimes, the game can run but fail to load most sounds.
  4. Lastly, if use incognito mode to run the game, it will display the message "Failed to register service worker" and the game will play every time (at least every time that I've tested). No red errors will appear in the inspect element tool.

What does this combination of successes/errors mean? The part that I'm most curious about is the repeated success of the incognito tab at loading the game. Is chrome blocking the game in some way? I've uploaded lots of demos in the past for this same game and never had any issues.

I'd appreciate any advice at all! I'm down for trying new things. Unfortunately, I'm not very knowledgeable with this type of material.

Thanks so much!
