The Windows Build refuses to run on my Win10 system.

The program starts, the screen goes black and then the app exits without any message.

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.19 GHz
32,0 GB
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti (12 GB)

The Mac build works just fine on my M2 MBA, so I'll play it there.
What a cute short game. Well done, and thanks for making. I found you via the game engineering podcast

Thanks for playing! 😻 Happy you liked it.

How strange with the broken Windows version! It’s hard to say exactly why it didn’t work. I have mostly the same specs on my computer, and also Win10. Do you perhaps have any unusual multi-monitor set up? Or did you perhaps put the game in some folder with an unusual name? Or do you have the %appdata% folder (where your settings are saved) in an unusual place?

I have 38" 21/9 WQHD+ (3840 x 1600) and placed the EXE on the Desktop. No other fancy configs though. Weirdly enough, the executable did not have an icon, perhaps, that's related?

The lack of icon is just an oversight on my end.

It does work for me on the desktop. So it’s likely some hardware or driver issue. Is there anything interesting in %appdata%\CAT & ONION\log.txt ? If it even exists, not sure if had enough time to write out the log if the program crashed.
