DISCLAIMER: Buckshot Roulette is built with GODOT engine, which uses Vulkan API instead of DirectX.

Buckshot Roulette also does not officially support Mac OS. Unfortunately, Mac OS is notorious for problems with Vulkan API, and your best bet is to try and launch the game with OpenGL (as described below).

Another solution might be using an app like Parallels[www.parallels.com] or PlayOnMac[www.playonmac.com] to try an launch the game in an emulated Windows environment.

Please, consider this before buying the game!

Vulkan Error
If you’re getting the “Unable to initialize Vulkan video driver” error, make sure that your Vulkan video driver is up to date. You can download the latest version from these pages:
Vulkan for NVidia GeForce graphics cards[developer.nvidia.com]
Vulkan for AMD Radeon graphics cards[gpuopen.com]

If your graphics card doesn’t support Vulkan, you can try launching Buckshot Roulette in OpenGL mode.

Easy way
  1. Right-click Buckshot Roulette in your Steam Library
  2. Select 'Properties...'
  3. Paste under 'Launch Options' the following
    --rendering-driver opengl3
  4. Close the window and try launching the game.

Hard way
To do this on Windows:
  1. Press Win+R, type in cmd and press Enter. A command terminal window will open.
  2. Enter
    cd [Path to Buckshot Roulette folder on your computer]
    and press Enter
  3. Paste
    "Buckshot Roulette.exe" --rendering-driver opengl3
    and press Enter again

To do this on Mac OS:
  1. Open Terminal.app (press Cmd + Space and enter Terminal). A command terminal window will open.
  2. Enter
    cd [Path to Buckshot Roulette folder on your computer]
    and press Enter
  3. Paste
    "Buckshot Roulette.exe" --rendering-driver opengl3
    and press Enter again

We know of this bug. Unfortunately, it's not that easy to fix, but we're working on it!

p.s. thanks for reminding me about Steam Launch Options!

Do I have to do this every time to open the game?
Also, there are square brackets everywhere.

If you use the Steam Launch Options solution -- no, those are applied automatically!

Well damn, and here I was eager to see it come on Mac as well, been very much wanting to play it ever since I first saw it. Oh well, maybe one day.
The game crashed if I start with simplified Chinese, it works after using this code, but bloodstains begin to appear.

Very sorry to hear this
We're working on fixing the blood stains as soon as possible.

As for the crash when you select Chinese — can you please share your player log file, so we can take a closer look and see if we can find something?

You can find it by navigating to
C:\Users\(your profile name)\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Buckshot Roulette/logs

You can use any file sharing website you find most convenient. Just drop the link in this thread.

We're really sorry. Since it's because of GODOT, we can't do much here. And changing engines is just not feasible. Maybe we'll get a solution in the future, though!
