Please post any bugs you find in this thread.

Hello, I am running Windows 11 and can't run the game -- not even a window appears. Do you have any suggestion?
Step to reproduce:

1. Unzip the file to my E: drive

2. Run `Control Override.exe`

I've reran the current build on a windows 11 machine and it seems to work. Can you give more details about your pc's specs? The game isn't particularly demanding.
Also, are you sure that no window appears? When running the game the first time, you may get a windows smartscreen popup? This is very common for exes that haven't been downloaded that many times. You need to tell windows to allow running the game in the popup window for the game to start.

I'm running Windows 11 Home 22H2 build 22621.3007 on a Lenovo Ideapad 330-14IKB x86-64, Intel i5-8250 with 12 GB memory. I'm 100% sure no window appears, including windows smartscreen popup. I also tried to run it as admin, still not working.

I've read in other game thread that using https://itch.io/app may help and it does, I can run the the game intalled using itch.io client. Directly running the executable or launching it from the ithio.io client works. Thank you for your response.

Ok, it is weird that it only runs through the itch app for you. Thanks for the report. I'll investigate.
