Hi. The "stuck on save screen" happened again. This time it was in the living room after I talked to dad about the commodore. I refreshed the game that moment just because [I wanted to undo me clicking the channel list, fsr].
I tried the continuing saved game after refresh thing earlier quests ago and it was working just fine.
So... I tried "give up" but instead of resetting all progress, it kept the chores done. No litters in my room, I was free to go out and the achievement screen triggered. Talked to my bro in his room, no litter, same dialogue as when I already helped him. Same with mom in the kitchen. My art already on the fridge, and the worm in its home. Couldn't find dad anywhere and the cat. The toilet already used and everything. All these while the save screen shows I still have 5 hours left to survive. Weird, lol. I can trigger the light switch in the basement though. I "gave up" once more, still the case.
I'm sorry I happen to uncover these. Still a great game and experience!
