itch.io

OK I've now got VekWars working on my system; I must've ignorantly installed the older "original" version because I used the wrong way to download the game.

I got your game in the BLM bundle, so I actually paid for it.  But, confusingly, there's multiple ways to download items on itch.io once you've paid for them, which can lead you to download the wrong version of those items unaware.

One method of downloading something you have bought is :
(1) log into itch.io (sometimes optional);
(2) go directly to the page for whatever you are seeking to download;
(3) click the "Download Now" button;
(4) click the text link "No thanks, just take me to the downloads";
-&-
(5) click the "Download" button next to the file(s) you want to download.

In VekWar's case only one download button is displayed at step (5), if you go this route.  It IS labelled "VekWars Original VR Austin Jam Build.zip", but without reading the previous game page properly, it's not obvious that as an older version, this may not work on some systems.  I must've downloaded & installed this version in error.

For people who've bought something as part of a bundle,
an alternative "proper" (if bizarrely convoluted) method of downloading it is :
(1) log into itch.io;
(2) click on the down arrow at the top right of the screen,
& choose the text option "My Library";
(3) under the heading "My Library", click the text link "Things you own";
(4) click the "Bundles" heading near the top of the screen;
(5) click the name of the bundle including whatever you wish to download;
(6) in the search box displayed,
type the name of what you're seeking *exactly correct*
(e.g. searching for "Vek Wars" with a space in the middle won't find anything),
then the Enter or Return key;
(7) after the results of your search appear,
click the "Download" button under the name of what you're looking for;
-&-
(8) click the "Download" button next to the file(s) you want to download.

*Whew.*
