I'm getting a "Not a valid Win32" error msg with version 0.2
Same problem here, I tried to solve it in every way but without success. Yet the previous version of the game worked! I have Win7, I tried in every way to try to understand what the problem is and as far as I can tell the executable requires Windows 10 or 8.1 components, not present in Windows 7
Libraries like "API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-*" or "DCOMP.DLL" are all part of the WinRT (Windows Runtime) subsystem, introduced with Windows 8/10, and do not exist natively in Windows 7.
Conclusion: the game or program you we trying to launch was compiled for Windows 8/10/11, or uses modern libraries that are not compatible with Windows 7.
Unfortunately, this type of error cannot be fixed by installing individual DLLs. It is not enough to copy those DLLs into the system, not even installing Visual C++ or .NET will work because Win7 does not have the necessary WinRT infrastructure.

If anyone knows of a SAFE way to get game.exe to work on Windows 7 please let me know. TY
