That's odd, the game loading script with that error message won't even run without a save file to check. When you say you have no save data, does that mean there's no save file at all or is the save file blank?
I have run the game in the past (or atleast past versions). I played the new ver and it also run smoothly. Yesterday I checked it and it was making that error, so I deleted everything completely and downloaded a fresh latest ver, when I opened it, it now shows this message on clean startup
Ah I see, you just deleted the download, not the save file. Due to how gamemaker works the save file is located in your local app data, there should be a folder in there labeled squelchies, that's where the save data is.
