I can get to the title screen, but when I "press any key" the window closes immediately. I can briefly see the window fills up with text but I dont have time to read it.
I just installed python-3.6.4 and I have tried both versions you uploaded. Am I doing something wrong?
Edit: managed to get a screencap, this appears for about 1/10 of a second
On Mac I can get past the title screen but the game font is garbled. Maybe both problems have the same cause, something unicode-y where it shouldn't be?
Ugh, I see now what the problem is when testing on other systems - Windows console doesn't render UTF-8 correctly, you need to mess with character sets either by using the command chcp 1250 or chcp 1252 or chcp 65001 directly in console. This may also affect macOS although it shouldn't.
Whelp, I should've tested this game on other systems before, thanks for feedback.
