I'm the programmer on this project. A few questions:
Which version of windows are you using, specifically?
Some antivirus software can interfere with the game. Are you using any?
Where have you extracted the game to? On some systems, there can be permissions issues running software from the Desktop or from other folders that windows considers sensitive.
You can answer here or email me at kita@kemosho.co if you'd prefer.
Thank you for replying!
I'm using windows 10 pro 64bits, 20H2 version.
I'm not using any intivirus software besides windows defender, and I have it disable.
At first I extracted the game into a folder on my desktop, but moved it to my downloads folder and still does not open, even while running it as admin.
I've created a small cmd script that may help diagnose this:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XbtZ__o1gu50nSaMqCI9fmq8ubZVZyKz/view?usp=shari...
Download this file and place it in the folder with CosmobreederYiffai.exe, then double click it to run. This will attempt to launch the game while displaying a console window.
Let me know if the game runs or not using this script and what, if any, error messages are printed to the console.
Thank you, I tried it but it still does not run. This is what displayed in the console window:

The error ("Pixel format not accelerated") is typically caused due to either your GPU not having OpenGL compatibility or, more likely, a problem with the video drivers.
What kind of GPU is installed on your system? If it's a relatively recent one, make sure that its drivers are installed and up to date.
If you have an Intel HD Graphics 2000 or 3000, you may have some difficulty getting the drivers installed on Windows 10. Intel has not shipped any official drivers for these parts.
A post on Intel's support forum suggests that you may be able to install the version for windows 8.1 and earlier:
