Stuck on loading screen

[Zeta Reticulan]

Now that the game is out, I launched it and selected the creature I wanted to play as. After that, I get to the loading screen and it freezes and nothing happens.

Sorry to say but count me as another for being stuck at the loading screen with "Generating Reef" with the circle not moving once on the black screen after ol sharky swims through the reef and it fades to black. I go to my task manager and it does say that's "Not Responding".

Looks like a beautiful game and I love to see another ocean game. Look foreword to playing it!

No worries! This is why I decided to make the game free. Hopefully no one feels cheated if the game didnt work from them and I dont feel TOO much pressure if I can't get it fixed. Lots to learn with my first Unreal release.

So far no luck today, small improvement where atleast it doesn't "lock" my screen when loading, I can easily tab out to end process. Working on one more test build this morning so fingers crossed.

Good luck mate. Is it an AMD versus Nvidia problem maybe......just my 2 cents

(repost) Hmmm how much time did you wait? (just for my reference). The game has to procedurally build the reefs so I'm not sure how much loading time that means for people depending on their CPUs

for me its forever lol, i cannot get past that screen when i load the game. my pc wont be the issue either. its a shame its only happening to some of us. hope you can figure this issue out soon GFG, forever a fan.

Majority of the players cant get past the loading screen. Theres 6 active right now. Not being one of those but this should be a priority for sure. Other than that just want to try the game...

Nb: my pc does meet all the requirements (and more).

Thanks so much for the added intel everyone I'm working on more fixes today!

Glad that you are working on a fix, both my precious princess and myself are really looking forward to try this game out.

I will include information in my task manager, hope it will help.
Since i have the same issue here and it is stuck at the generating reefs part.
