I'm not sure what I did, I'd swear everything was just working yesterday. I've looked in my script file but can't find what's wrong. I'm not sure if english/game/script is a different file but I can't find it anywhere. =/ I think I accidentally created a new game(duplicate) on a different pc the other day instead of pointing to the right folder so wondering if that messed with something. It still seemed like everything was working though.
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While loading the script.
ScriptError: Name u'start' is defined twice: at english/game/script.rpy:11 and game/script.rpy:88.

Oh thanks ~ I thought that was the problem but I kept looking for an "English" folder that didn't seem to exist. It was in another folder same name as the game duplicated inside of it. Deleted it and it's good again
