New description:

 I am trying to play Just Me and My Dad on ScummVM through the PSP, and for
 some reason, when using version ScummVM-PSP r24651-gb6a2bc0977e
 (20260409), the game crashes back to the PSP home menu upon loading a
 page. The normal version of ScummVM on PSP doesn’t see the game files,
 hence why I’m using an experimental build. Here are the instructions to
 reproduce the bug:

 1. Copy the JMMD director files and the specified ScummVM version to the
 Memory Stick.
 2. Launch ScummVM on the PSP, and wait for the menu to appear.
 3. Add the JMMD folder to the games list.
 4. Start the game, press “Play Anyway” at the message saying that the game
 is not fully supported, and wait for the logos and intro to play out. If
 you want, press the select button and X to skip the logos and intro.
 5. The cursor doesn’t appear initially, which could be another bug, but it
 can be fixed by pressing start and selecting Resume from the pause menu.
 6. A menu with Little Critter and his animal friends will appear. Move the
 cursor to the Play button, and press X. You can also trigger this bug by
 going to the Page button, clicking on it, selecting a page in the next
 menu, then pressing X on the OK button.
 7. The bug will reproduce itself if you followed the steps correctly.

 I’m no expert in regards to programming, but something that is specific to
 the PSP version may be causing this problem, as the game works perfectly
 fine on my PC, Switch, and 3DS.
