Just bought the game and it won't work.fragglefemme02/07/2010 - 17:43

Hello :)

I just bought this game from the 2Dboy website for my son to play.  I installed it on his computer (it runs in XP) and it seemed to install just fine.  However, when I click the icon to start the game, it won't start.  Instead, it gives me this big long error message with a close button at the bottom.  I'm not a huge tech geek (just other kinds of a geek, lol), so I have no clue why this isn't working.  It's a bit frustrating to pay $20 for something that won't work.  Can anyone assist me? 

The clueless mom. ???

Would you copy and paste the crash.log file found in the World of Goo directory here? (Let me guess... Access Violation problem?) Also post your computer specs.
