Probably just need to unzip the rar file, or you're on a mac or something.

Hi,
I don't know why people have a problem downloading the game (probably virus protection blocking a download and people don't notice?) and while I appreciate an alternative download link that works for folks, I can't let people leave unofficial download links in the comments due to them easily being tampered with or dangerous no matter how trustworthy. So I have to delete this one.
I'll add my own alternate download link to the game description.
Does it create a save file in the first place? Try saving the game, then look in the game folder for a save file. If there is one, try backing it up. If there isn't one after you save at a crow, extract the RAR file, your computer doesn't have permission to actually create the save files otherwise. You can also try running as an administrator but I doubt that's the problem. If none of these things work, I'm not sure what to do.
Of course I would appreciate translations of the game. I'd need an organized document of all dialogue, item text and battle text in order of appearance (knowing how to decompile and view the RPG Maker project file on your own would be best for this, otherwise you'll have to play through the game), and then I'd need another neutral, fluent person to verify the translation to see if it comes across the same. Get in contact me if you go through with this and finish it so you can send me the document and I can include anything you might have missed. (PM on discord is probably the best way, although I may be slow to respond on there at first.)
Again, it'd be a lot of work for you. I'd need an organized document of all dialogue, item text and battle text in order of appearance (knowing how to decompile and view the RPG Maker project file on your own would be best for this, otherwise you'll have to play through the game), and then I'd need another neutral, fluent person to verify the translation to see if it comes across the same.

I appreciate the thought, but I'd rather not accept any donations as a result of this game. The best thing you can do is save your money for my next original project that may come sometime in the future. Thank you for playing.
I would however recommend you take a look at one of the game's musician's bandcamp page and consider picking it up to support him: https://jdubbs.bandcamp.com/releases
Highly recommend this game, the amount of content put into it is unreal. The thought and effort goes beyond what one would expect in an RPG Maker game, but it just goes to show that you shouldn't judge something by the engine it's made in. As a developer in the engine myself, the things that HousekeepingGames has accomplished with this title in RPG Maker are really admirable. Definitely stands up there with any of the great RPGs like Earthbound and Final Fantasy. Get out your wallets and pick Jimmy up, it's well worth the price.

MINOR SPOILERS:
The more overt choices to where the storyline branches are in the Sportsdome - responding to Lanks or Cyclops in a certain fashion will change the course of the story.
MAJOR SPOILERS (In case you want direct instructions):
To unlock one ending, respond to Lanks by picking all of the TOP (first) options in dialogue for EACH match. (Four times)
To unlock a different ending than that, respond to Cyclops by picking all of the BOTTOM (second) options in dialogue for EACH match. (Four times)
Incompatibilities and I haven't ported it over to Mac yet. But you can try using Wineskin, people have had some success with this. http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-index.php
The other endings are meant to be hidden fairly well.

Another choice can be made at the very first of the game. Play in Pain Mode again and speak with Rodriguez multiple times. This one is hard to find.

For the last and secret ending, play in Pain Mode. Run from the very first Yogurt Masters fight, collect the item he drops and then go find Artie Choke. Do not kill him - just give him the mags and then speak with him. Trade the item he asks for for a Toolbox. Then return to Rodriguez and you're set.
