are the saves old? renpy is sorta unpredictable when it comes to cross-version save files :/
i recommend using the fast forward option -- i promise we aren't doing any meta "tracking what you pick" things that isnt reflected in the achievements menu :P
actually ill dm you on tumblr for a more detailed bug report
I was experimenting with loading different save files and got mixed results on which ones worked, went to the start, or crashed. I have updated the game to the version 301 and am only using old save files. I am using the Itchio app and the in-app updating feature.
(Video has spoilers for most of PQR including bonus route)
Pressing Rollback too many times, causes the game to crash, as in the window closes.
Here are the crash codes:
Damara/Prologue
[code]
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
File "renpy/common/00action_file.rpy", line 498, in __call__
renpy.load(fn)
Exception: Couldn't find a place to stop rolling back. Perhaps the script changed in an incompatible way?

okay that marvus clip actually gave me a good idea of what's happening
basically the game likes to rewind to the most recent "label" -- there's a label at the start of every route, which is why the game rewound there if there's not any closer one. the trollian label exists, the "blueblood car" label exists, etc.
i didnt code the save file system so i dont really know how to help... "perhaps the script changed in an incompatible way" really is what's going on, i think.
what's definitely interesting is the "unseen text" resetting. are you redownloading it each time, or using the itch app to update?
i'll ask around in the renpy discord for help pretty soon o7
