Nice Game. Well done.
A bit preachy for me, so I skipped most of the dialogue (and to be honest, I didn't agree with some of it). I was surprised that the female protagonist was not wearing a Burqa which is the custom in many muslim countries.
Hey,
I tried the full uninstall, cleared any references in the registry and profile, then reinstalled. No joy unfortunately :( It still crashes a few seconds after loading into the initial game scene.
But I was able to install Windstone on two other windows 10 computers and it worked fine.
The only possible cause I could find was OpenSSL* SHA Crash Bug Requires Application Update (intel.com But changing this environment setting didn't fix the problem.
I know you must be busy and so I am happy to leave it at that. But if you find more players have the same problem, I would be happy to help you try and resolve the issue with further testing or running a debug build.
All the best :)
I tried version 11 and Version 12. All crash on my system. I turned my AV off completely. This didn't make a difference, I also tried running in windows 8 compatability mode, bit this also didn't work.
There is something in my system that Windstone does not like :(
I can't think of anything else to try to make it work.
I installed the Itch.IO app. Interestingly, it said I have owned your game for 3 years :)
I get the same issue running it through the itch.io app. I can't get too much detail on the crash. I just have one error in the event log, which is the same as the WER file:

Hi,
I like the look of your game and I would love to get into it and give you some feedback.
However, the game crashes within 30 seconds of starting. I can't find the crash files to send you, if you let me know where they dump, I will happy to forward them to you.
The crashes occur if I let the intro text play through and before the loading screen come up. If I skip the intro text, I pick up a couple rocks, and then it crashes.
All the best,
Zaddo
This game looked interesting, so I downloaded the demo to make sure it played as good as it looks. But there is nothing to do in the Demo. It is a simple unity terrain poorly decorated. With a nice water asset the dev must have purchased from the asset store. All there is to do in the demo is walk around. So I deleted the game....
