Hi, I cannot run WOG under Win 7 64 bits. It doesn't give me a message error, simply turns into black screen. Seconds later returns to desktop for 2 or 3 seconds an then again de black screen. For a while also apears a window. The sounds works fine and as is said I have no message error.

I've been having that same issue also.  Question?  Are you running a multi monitor setup?

Don't ask me how but I make it works. I changed de config file in direcotry_of_Wolrd_of_Goo/properties/config.txt. In this file you could specify the screen resolution. The defaults values are 800x600. In my case I wrote 1680x1050. The file looks like:
<config>
<param name="language" value="en"/>
<param name="screen_width" value="1680"/>
<param name="screen_height" value="1050"/>
<param name="refreshrate" value="60" />
<param name="ui_inset" value="10"/>
</config>

I have two monitors at the same resolution. Now it works fine.
