Oh man, I'm sorry. How much RAM do you have? The game uses at least 600MB and sometimes up to 900MB because I'm dumb and lazy and didn't spend the time to lower it. Can you get to the menu alright? It takes between 45 seconds and a minute for the initial load, but it might take more on other machines, I didn't get a chance to test it on more than a couple of computers. Any details about the problem and the specs on your computer would be appreciated. If you could close any other applications first, that might help.
