Game won't launch

The game will not load past the 'Preparing to launch...' window
I have checked the integrity of the game files
I have also tried launching the game through the command line. This is the output:

Set current directory to /home/<user>/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Night in the Woods Found path: /home/<user>/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Night in the Woods/Night in the Woods.x86_64 Mono path[0] = '/home/<user>/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Night in the Woods/Night in the Woods_Data/Managed' Mono path[1] = '/home/<user>/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Night in the Woods/Night in the Woods_Data/Mono' Mono config path = '/home/<user>/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Night in the Woods/Night in the Woods_Data/Mono/etc' Preloaded 'ScreenSelector.so' Preloaded 'libCSteamworks.so' Preloaded 'libfmod.so' Preloaded 'libfmodL.so' Preloaded 'libfmodstudio.so' Preloaded 'libfmodstudioL.so' Preloaded 'libgvraudio.so' Preloaded 'libsteam_api.so' Player data archive not found at `/home/<user>/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Night in the Woods/Night in the Woods_Data/data.unity3d`, using local filesystem

Currently running:
Ubuntu 18.04 64 bit
Intel Core i5 540M
4GB ram
Intel Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller i915
But the main problem is that when my computer was running Windows 10, it launched completely fine. It didn't run too well, but that's just because it's a laptop from 2010 with low specs. Thanks in advance for any help

Verify integrity of files?

Open another detail log file in ~/.config/unity3d/Infinite\ Fall/Night\ in\ the\ Woods/Player.log

I had this problem too, solved it by change some config in ~/.config/unity3d/Infinite\ Fall/Night\ in\ the\ Woods/prefs

I changed these lines (make backup if necessary):
-----------------------------------------------
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Height" type="int">0</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Width" type="int">0</pref>
-----------------------------------------------
to
-----------------------------------------------
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Height" type="int">720</pref>
<pref name="Screenmanager Resolution Width" type="int">1280</pref>
-----------------------------------------------

Change those lines with whatever your screen resolution is.

Hope this helps :D

Sorry for responding kinda late
I have followed your steps and have tried launching it again. It unfortunately still doesn't run, but, there is a new error in Player.log.

Desktop is 1600 x 900 @ 59 Hz Unable to find a supported OpenGL core profile Failed to create valid graphics context: please ensure you meet the minimum requirements E.g. OpenGL core profile 3.2 or later for OpenGL Core renderer [Vulkan init] extensions: count=2 [Vulkan init] extensions: name=VK_EXT_debug_utils, enabled=0 [Vulkan init] extensions: name=VK_EXT_debug_report, enabled=0 Vulkan error VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER (-9) file: /home/builduser/buildslave/unity/build/Runtime/GfxDevice/vulkan/VKContext.cpp, line: 279 Vulkan detection: 0 No supported renderers found, exiting (Filename: Line: 525)

From what I got from it, it turns out that I need a newer version of OpenGL, which doesn't seem to update from steps I've followed online. I've also tried running it through Wine and it works, so I guess I'll just use that for now, unless you have a different suggestion.

But seriously though, thanks for your help
