Overture(Steam) Won't start - lwelyk - 06-07-2009

Every time I try I'm given a black screen then an error messge saying "Couldn't Load PointLight 2D" pops up. Help?

Try starting the game directly from the installed directory. There should be a Penumbra.exe there that u can start.

The is probably that the shortcut to the exe is not working correctly.

Seems like correct path.

The only thing I can think off is reinstalling the application.
