Steam version not loading!

[Flanxxcore 10]

Hi,

I got the steam version of this game today.

After countless attempts to get it to run I have been unsuccessful.

Tried killing processes, restarting etc.

Nothing works.

All I get is this.

it's my crash report if it help you guys

Try restarting steam. We posted an update late in the day... if that doesn't work we will have to look into in on Monday.

Perhaps if I provided the log from the game you could help assess the situation?

Here it is:

Attempting to reinstall in the meantime, could've been a fault with the download but who knows.

[DonZ 10]

Doesn't help. I'll wait till monday.

Is there any differences between beta game client with and without 'staging' group that i picked on beta tab?

[Kevin 971]

DonZ: You should use the "default" beta branch. Staging is out of date, currently.

Flanxxcore: Odd - it's dying doing some main menu display stuff. I wonder why that would happen for you but not other people - are you using the default beta branch?

[seenoevilfoo 10]

I think we all have to wait until Monday then, I am having the exact same problem with you here. Countless time of killing process, LOL. Going back to Chrome and survive now...

I LOVE THIS GAME AND WISH TO PLAY IT ON STEAM ASAP <3

Im having the exact same issue

[Kamas200 10]

Im having the exact same issue

I got this same problem

[NezuNezu 10]

Yep me too. Can't play the game what ever I try, hope it gets fixed Soon!

[Toaster Fu 101]

The Devs are going to try to fix the problem on Monday when they get back to the office.

[501105 20]

I am very curious to what the issue is, the Steam version worked fine for me all weekend and this morning it just wont start whatever I do and as far as I know the game version has not changed.

[Flanxxcore 10]

It's working now ^___^

[Byear89 10]

The same issue is happening when I try to launch Don't Starve through Steam still. I open Steam, Click play Don't Starve it says Launching a window pops up, stays blank, and then closes itself. No game, no joy.
