Why does my teleport script work in the studio but not in the game?

I have a loading screen and when you click "Load Game" it should teleport you to a game. But the problem is, it gives me an error saying

"Invalid player to teleport" when I play it in game but when I try it in studio, it works perfectly fine

script

par = script.Parent.Parent
function onClicked()
    script.Parent:Destroy()
    par["Start Game"]:Destroy()
    par.ImageLabel.Image = "rbxgameasset://Images/Orange"
    game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(961702140, game.Players.LocalPlayer)

end


script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(onClicked)

You do not need to add the game.Players.LocalPlayer . You could just use this in a LocalScript:

local par = script.Parent.Parent --Since this variable is used within a function, its best to add local to it.
script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
    script.Parent:Destroy()
    par["Start Game"]:Destroy()
    par.ImageLabel.Image = "rbxgameasset://Images/Orange"
    game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(961702140) --Notice the small change
end)

If this worked, please upvote and accept answer. If it didn't work, please comment. Thanks!

game.Players.LocalPlayer is better to use then script.Parent.Parent becuase if you need help pro scripters will have no idea what the parent is or anything like that and its just a hasle to change if its in a diff child, so I would recomend using game.Players.LocalPlayer. outlook1234567890 115 — 6y

You should use an event. Not sure if you should make it a local script but here's the code.

Local par = script.Parent.Parent
Local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer

Script.parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function(click)

Script.Parent:Destroy()
Par["Start Game"]:Destroy()

par.ImageLabel.Image = "rbxgameasset://Images/Orange"

    game:GetService("TeleportService"):Teleport(961702140, plr)

End)

Try this and tell me if it doesn't work try adding game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr) before the first event and removing the plr variable.
