When I run the executable it shows a CMD, shows a black screen for a split second and then just closes

Could you show your log.txt? It should be in the same folder with alien.exe.

WiktorProj commented 2 months ago

The log.txt:

2024-05-27 08-26-02: initialize GLFW and OpenGL
2024-05-27 08-26-03: set full screen mode
2024-05-27 08-26-03: initialize GLAD

there was nothing more.

Have you checked the readme file in the alien folder? It contains a section on troubleshooting (could be point 3 or 4).

WiktorProj commented 1 month ago

there's no readme here

chrxh commented 1 month ago

It's located one folder up (I will rearrange the files in the future).

Updating my Nvidia drivers and restarting fixed it for me.
