One of these common problem solvers may help:

1. Verify the games files - https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/0C48-FCBD-DA71-93EB
2. Uninstalling the game, then Clear download cache (https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/6AD7-820D-8BE5-E51F#:~:text=From%20your%20Steam%20Client%2C%20open,Cache%22%20button%20at%20the%20bottom.) and then re-installing the game
3. Make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date.

Hopefully one of these solves the issue.

Download cache cleared ❌ (game was un-installed, cleared, then re-installed and crashed)
Verified files ❌ (all 23 files verified, still crashed)
Graphics card drivers... I'll go try messing this this, then.
Although I'm not sure how this would help, as it says the game's 'package' may be corrupt.
Update:
Checked my drivers, it says they're all up to date. Not sure what's causing the crash, might be my PC or something.

In my case same error was caused by loadouts save files. Deleting them from Documents(or OneDrive\Documents)\DiatomicGames\SwordWithSauce\Loudouts solved the crash problem. And yes, for some reason folder name is "LoUdouts".

how long did you have to tinker with the game files to figure this out...

in this case, do you know what the file extension for the loadouts are? i want to try and see if i can restore my old loadouts

They are just binary files with no extension, but names are the same as in game, one file per loadout. Most likely it's only one or two of them causing problem, rest should be fine.

well i have put them in a different folder
they're all labelled "Loadout1" so i'll try re-naming them since the game doesn't let you name 2 loadouts the same thing

Verifying the game file worked for me! So glad this game is back in development, I fell in love with it when I saw jacksepecteye play it back when I was in high school. SO EXCITED!
