Hi, I keep getting this traceback when I try to run the game:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
  File "renpy/common/00start.rpy", line 210, in script call
    call _gl_test

Could you check if the file window_icon.png is in the folder "Influencing-0.1.15.0-pc\game\gui"? If the file does not exists, try to unpack the zip file again. If the problem persists, please tell me again. 

If the file exists, I suggest you to check your windows. Sometimes windows updates does something wrong with some important dll of the system and it stops to read renpy correctly (beside other executables, of course).

Thank you, I was able to fix the problem using FixWin.
