Yeah, other players have had the same bug (check out the other comments). Unfortunately, it looks like itch.io has an issue with achievements, and I'm thinking about disabling them for now. The good news is that it seems to be device and/or browser-dependent; maybe you could try using a different device or browser?
I've read that the webmaster of CoGDemos is working on the bug on her end. Would you like me to update you when she fixes it?
Yes id love to have an update on the fixed version. Sorry to put even more on your plate but when i tried it on a different browser it took me to the choice script homepage? Not quite sure whats that 😭
I think you accidentally clicked on the blue 'Make your own games' link at the bottom, under the game box! ☺
(I didn't remove it because this should just be a temporary fix, sorry!)
By the way, I added an option to disable achievements in the game. If you'd like, you can try turning them off to see if that "fixes" the issues on itch.io. Sorry again for all the trouble–I have no idea why everything's acting up all at once this week, lol.
Hi. I've been receiving this error, and the "Next" button just keeps disappearing. The story is so good and interesting that it has me hooked, and I really want to continue playing, but I don't know what to do. Also, on the original version, I can't keep going on because of another error. So, if I could get an answer or a solution, I'd be very grateful.
Hi there! I’m really sorry, but unfortunately these are two unrelated issues, and neither of them has anything to do with the code, which is correct. Other creators are also experiencing the error with CoGDemos, while the one on itch.io—I’m not sure what’s causing it, but I see at least one other person has run into it too (and just yesterday, too!). Could you please try again using a different browser or device? I’m really sorry for the trouble you’re having.
No bother at all! Ugh, this shouldn't be happening, I'm sorry. I'll playtest it myself and get back to you soon, but please, be sure to clear the cache in the meantime.
Alright, so: the issue was that, depending on the choices made, there was a chance you wouldn’t be able to convince her enough, but there was still too much time left (it’s all about balancing numbers—and oh boy, am I terrible at math). I worked around it by increasing the time required for the different questions and adding another option where MC can take a moment to think about what to do next (losing even more time, lol). This should now allow the scene to move forward correctly. Thanks again for the feedback!

Hi I get this error repeatedly and it just kicks me out of the game. Sorry for the inconvenience

Hey there Legit, I finally managed to bypass the problem on COGDemos. You can now go back to play here. Sorry about the hassle!

Oh, okay. No problem, I understand. And thanks for the tip too. I'll try it.
I've read that the webmaster of CoGDemos is working on the bug. Do you want me to notify you when I have news about a fix?
Yes, please. I'll appreciate it.
Hey Melody, I finally managed to bypass the problem on COGDemos. You can now go back to play here. Sorry about the hassle!
I seem to be stuck in an infinite loop here? Not sure if that just means I got to the end or what, but I'll try playing the original now!
No, that shouldn't happen. I'm going to check the code now. BRB!
My bad, I've now fixed the bug. Enjoy! ♥
Sorry if this bothers you at all, but the loop is happening again? This time I was able to ask all the questions tho! I really love the story so far

Awesome! I love the story!
Thanks so much, I’m really glad you like it! I hope it keeps living up to your expectations in the future :)
