Game start without visible content

KKV

Hello. I bought game two days ago, but I can't play. I set game from Steam, Steam file data checking is passed. When I press button to start I see "Game is started" at Steam, I can hear a music. But I can see Icon with fish at Taskbar only. No falling ship etc... DirectX, new videodriver, Framenets and C++ are installed. DirectX9 and OpenGL was forced and did'nt help. I want to play, help me plz

Sorry, I did'nt insert DXdiag screen. It's here:

I try to play on notebook Lenovo Z510, Windows 10 with updates etc.

Thanks to FlippingPower for the image, and 0x6A7232 who keeps it in their signature.

If that doesn't work, try this startup option: -window-mode exclusive
(instead of -force opengl)

KKV

Thank for help. First try change nothing. But with second start option I can see black screen with movable blue cursor and Steam message. And nothing more. No ship... No reaction on keys...

KKV

Some additional information. When I move mousepointer I can hear some sounds. I can locate invisible buttons and press it. So I can exit. Maybe videocodecs are broken? What codecs are used?

KKV

Perfect support...

I've got the same exact problem. Bought it from Steam but when I launch it all I get is an invisible page that wont open. I checked my specs before and after I bought it but I still can't run it.
If anyone has fixed the issue or could look into it I'd appreciate it.

I wish companies would move away from this discussion/FAQ board way of trying to fix their consumer's problems. Posts never truly get answered and when someone does finally respond its usually just a redirect to another page that still doesn't fix the issue.
