Dark fantasy romance, lots of dialog choices. · By Rolling Crown

Since the latest update, game crashes when I try to launch it

Previously had the game installed on a different laptop, that one died, installed itch on my new one, re-downloaded the game a few days ago (same itch account , so I still own the game), just tried to launch it now. A blank window opens, closes, and itch says that the game is running. It shows up in my task manager as a background process but not an app (takes up like 5% of my cpu too).  I have to end the task, otherwise nothing ever happens. 

This is a 64 bit dell, operating windows 11 home

Hello,
Until I or someone else can troubleshoot this, can you try the older version of the game build - demonheart-windows-x32.zip - older version 1.65? It should run on 64 bit as well. Sometimes the new engine is incompatible with someone's hardware, but hopefully at least one build works.

@Rolling Crown - this appears to be an issue with itch's launcher. I used the 'manage' option to open the folder where the application was saved,  and double clicked the demonheart.exe, and the game opened just fine. I have had a similar issue and solution with LustDoll, and WolfQuest's recent patch has reported the same issue, so I don't think it's a Demonheart issue as much as it is a Itch.io issue
