Look into the WoG log file! On Linux it's located at $HOME/.WorldOfGoo/WorldOfGoo.log. I guess in WIndows it's in your user's home directory somewhere under applications ...

There is no log file on Windows as far as I know.

Im having the same problem (am running windows xp) Have been able to play fine for the last 3 days but tried to load up this afternoon and nothing happens. Rebooted my machine, rebooted Steam several times, deleted the game, re-downloaded it from steam again installed it again and have the same problem.

There is the possibility that an error message flashes up but its too fast to print screen so i cant see what it is. My steam friends have told me that the message flashes up that I am playing world of Goo but it just wont load.
