Game won't open

[small valve]

I'm so sad because my game is broken :( but it keeps giving me this error message. I just uninstalled, reinstalled, and then verified the game files. Please help

Looks like you may be using a Linux distro–a few Linux users have reported issues with the game since the latest patch, but have resolved it by using the Proton Hotfix.

Please trigger the latest update, and the game should work for you now.

Thanks so much for letting me know about the bug!

1.11.1? i think it is already updated

ive verified the game files several times and it still shows the same message. how do i check the game version?

I pushed another secret update a few minutes before my last message. It's still labeled 1.11.1 in the game, but it should fix your particular issue

Go to Updates -> Automatic Updates -> Set to "Immediately download", and then try launching the game. It should trigger the update

^ if that still doesn't work, try completely closing Steam and then try again

i restarted my computer earlier, and then i just closed steam again and switched the update setting and it still won’t open

Oh! I see what went wrong. The build didn't publish properly.

Please try launching now?
