No longer working on Windows 10
I've not played in a while but found this now doesn't seem to work on Windows 10. Anyone else having issues on W10 these days? Verified files, reinstalled and tried compatibility mode -
nothing works! Wondering if something in the fall creator update broke it or something?

Will try tomorrow and I'll tell you about. I haven't play the game in a long time.

It's working fine on my Win10 install (up to date). Maybe try running the DirectX updater again to see if any files are somehow missing?

I worked out what it was. I have my GPU stats showing over the top corner of my games using msi afterburner. Must be some issue with this as while it works fine on every other game it cause Octodad to crash. Killing off the process to show GPU stats over the game fixed the problem. I'm just wondering now why it didn't happen in the past when I played Octodad (assume it's something with one of the subsequent game/afterburner/rivatuner updates), and why it's only on this one game. Pretty strange but at least it works for me now and hopefully this info will be useful to someone.
