Works flawlessly no need to install anything

It was difficult to get it started. Need to use the beta
USE THE BETA!!!

Getting "The game crashed." error pop-up upon start-up
Just as described before, I opted into the beta "qa_v1.0.1" through properties and kept using Proton 5.0-5, but it took me through a quick Microsoft .NET Framework setup and then stopped running immediately by ending it with the following pop-up, which reads:
Oops! The game crashed. The crash report folder named "2020-03-22_014730" next to game executable. It would be great if you'd send it to the developer of the game!
followed by an "Okay" button.
Enabled the beta, and it worked. I just had to press the space bar to continue when it went to a blank white screen during startup.

Opt into the beta by right clicking on the game -> Properties -> Go to the "betas" tab and, as of the time of writing, click on qa_v1.0.1 -
which should be the only option listed. It might take a while for the game to start to the main menu so you might hang on a white screen for about 5 seconds, but be patient and the game will load and you can now date Colonel Sanders on Linux like you've always dreamed of
Seems to work with my Steam Controller as well, for those interested in playing with a controller


The game loaded, the KFC logo flashed, then the next logo flashed, the music played, then the screen went blank white, and nothing happened.


I tried activating beta feature from game properties but still got error message. Plus, the game installed Microsoft Framework everytime I (tried to) launch the game.


Works perfectly after you opt into the beta


You need to opt into qa_v1.0.1 beta after that just click play and it works no problems

Need to opt into qa_v1.0.1 beta. Plays great with no issues.


Need to opt into qa_v1.0.1 beta. Plays great with no issues.


Intro video doesn't play, but the rest is pretty much running as intended using the qa-v1.0.1 beta version that can be selected in the game properties -> betas

Opt into the beta, as other reports said. This allows you to skip the intro cutscene by clicking, so you can load the game. I played for about 2-3 minutes and didn't encounter any issues. Unlike other reports, though, using mf-install caused the game to crash for me. However I have not tried it on a fresh prefix with the beta

Must use the "qa_v1.0.1 -" beta in the game properties

just opt into the beta (qa_v1.0.1 - ) and it runs perfectly


Got the game running with no issue until now (only played around the main screen and speed through till i say a character) by using the beta version qa_v1.0.1 - which you can opt into in the properties of the game on steam.


I got the game running and played it through with just one problem. First I installed Media Foundation. https://github.com/z0z0z/mf-install The game still stalled after the logos for a while but eventually moved on. After a minute or so the intro cut scene started playing, with a bit of stuttering. The rest of the game went fine. The pause seems to happen at every boot of the game as well.

First two logos popup, then I get stuck at a white screen
Game does not launch; ILYCS.exe caused an Access Violation (0xc0000005) in module ILYCS.exe at 0033:40980c43.


As others have pointed out I am not getting any further than the splashscreen. Screen remains white.



Doesn't start



Didn't start


Game gets stuck on a white Screen:
WindowsVideoMedia error 0x80004001 while reading F:/fabian/Games/Steam/steamapps/common/ILYCS/ILYCS_Data/resources.resource
Context: MFCreateSourceReaderFromMediaSource


It displayed the first two icons and froze at a white screen.



Game Starts But No menu after credits. Used tweaks but still doesn't work


Game does not start


The game loads the two main logos, and cuts to a white screen with no action visible whatsoever. This was running the file right with the wine command. the Steam loader itself says that it is running but no window is shown.



Splash screen with sounds shows, then hangs on blank white screen. Wasn't tested thoroughly.


Most likely due to video codecs (like Catherine Classic), the game is borked. I believe it's meant to have a movie opening, but it gets stuck before it can play it. The game will just not load anything, kind of like if you were to leave Catherine Classic on the initial startup screen. I attempted to use install-mf, but I had no luck. That actually caused the game to freeze and crash at that screen. Shame.


Blank screen after the developer logo.


After the the logo booting up screen it stays at a white screen and nothing happens.


The game hangs after the loading screen.

Game doesn't have time to open with default Proton (4.2-9 on my machine) before it crashes due to an access violation, which doesn't happen on Windows. After trying with vanilla Wine (more complex setup), it is possible to get the game to show its loading screen, but the most I had was the logos before the game gets to a white screen.


Shows KFC and Psyop logos and stays on a white screen, won't start


It keeps having to reinstall .NET Framework when launching, I suspect it's not being applied properly
