From the sounds of it you have not played the game and have only recently downloaded the game. The most common problem is that people do not extract the entire game from the zip archive before trying to launch it.

Late Edit: For other users that have problems running the game, please extract the game into a new folder as the archive does not provide one and will put files and folders into the current folder.

Since you have 32-bit Windows I will assume that you have a slightly older computer as that may be relevant. There are 2 issues that can come from older computers. Your computer's hardware or graphics drivers may not support OpenGL ES 2.0. In this case, besides changing the version of your drivers, there is nothing that can be done besides getting a new computer. Alternatively your computer may have an older archiving software that is not compatible with the modern format of archives and is extracting corrupt files. The fix for this is simply to download a new version of WinRar or some other archive software.

There is a debug mod (https://itch.io/t/1137280/debugmod-v10d#post-2370019) which enables debug information, which may yield better insights into the cause of your problem. The additional information at the end of that post may help if it still crashes.

it didn't work, what do you think i can do?

You have not given any useful information for me to change my recommended course of action. You can get on the Discord for Strive(https://itch.io/t/284398/discord) and I can walk you through these steps again so that I can verify the steps and their results.

ok so, i open the debug strive app, after that it open for some seconds a command prompt, but it soon dissapear, the other don't open or open for a second

At the end of my first post:

The additional information at the end of that post may help if it still crashes.

Copied from the Debug Mod thread:

Additional info:
If the game suddenly crashes thus leaving no terminal nor logs or the game does not start with 2 windows, then I recommend running the executable from the Command Prompt. The command "cd path"(replace "path" with the path of your Strive program folder) can be used to navigate to wherever the Strive executable is located, and "Strive"(or the name of the debug executable) can be used to run the executable.

i tried but i didn't know how to do it

The Command Prompt can be opened from the Start menu in Windows; it may be located in the "Accessories" folder. If you have trouble finding it, then you can try pressing the Windows key and "R" to open the Run prompt, type "cmd" in the input, and press OK.

In the Command Prompt, type "cd <path>", but replace the "<path>" portion with the path to your Strive folder. For example mine is basically "cd C:/Users/USER_NAME/Desktop/Strive/strive-for-power-win64-public-1.0d". Then type "Strive-Debug" to run the game.


Ignore the weird Japanese characters(they behave like slashes), it's for compatibility with another game.
