it gives me an error saying I can't open the game when I try to boot up the exe. i don't know what I'm doing wrong. I might just not play the game until there's like, and actual  desktop shortcut for it bc its really annoying having to go through so many menus just to get a "Lol, lmao" message and not be able to play the game

Could you provide a screenshot of the error you're getting?

it's not letting me send an image even though I'm doing all the things it wants me to do. but the error says "Couldn't start: "C:\Users\liamm\AppData\Local\Temp\7zO83BE9542\VotV\Binaries\Win64\VotV-Win64-Shipping.exe" VotV CreateProcess() returned 2."

This is usually an error when you haven't unpacked the application from the Zip file. Make sure all your files are taken out of the Zip folder. Just make a folder and put it there if you like. So long as you know where the files are.

1) DId you unpack a game?
2) Do you have enough space for it? (i once didn't and get "fatal error" message
3) Thought about asking you for a crash report but this stuff is unreadable

Wish you any luck, hope you will run it

how do I unpack it?

I mean, game downloaded is a 7zip format, you should extract files to somewhere and do not launch game from itself

what? i used the 7zip thing but what do you mean to not launch the game itself? i managed to get the game to run once but it's not working i go through the files on 7zip and click the exe file

Dude. Im telling you to NOT launch the game FROM 7zip, extract it first. Then you can launch from extracted folder.

Do this

thank you, this worked. idk why but the first time I played the game I didn't unpack and it still opened so I was really confused

I'm sorry if this sounds weird, but is this the first time you've downloaded a game?

(-1)

no i downloaded and played a week or two ago, I only played for about an hour or two before going to something else, this ordeal was m trying to start it up a second time

i think I'm getting the bug where every signal is mars, is there any fix for it?

download the latest version if you haven't already, it should've been fixed
otherwise duplicating your save might work

how do I dupe the save? won't that cause issues?

Just download 0.8.0e (or the newest available), the first build you're playing on contains numerous issues you don't want to have during your playthrough.

As a child, I also ran a program inside the archive. The strangest thing is that it didn't work until I ran another file inside the same archive. I thought then that this is how it should be

Hopefully it is not a memory leak.
