Starting the exe I get a transparent window named "Valkyrie SDL Application" and then the system freezes completely until I have to do a hard reset. And I was so looking forward to this update! :(

Without additional info it's really hard to decide anything. What system are you running on?
Also, if you're on a system that has low resolution (e.g. Netbook) try setting the Display properties in the ini file to match your screen size, and run fullscreen.
[Display]
width = 1024;
height = 800;
fullscreen = False;
If your screen is smaller than what you declared in the ini file, it will obviously fail. As for reseting, you can probably go as low as 800x600, no lower.

Aww... so I can't run it on my EEE PC 701 then?
>.<

Hi Kornel, lowering the resolution to my netbook res (1024x600) was the first thing I tried...that didn''t do much. But additionally setting it to fullscreen did the trick! The game works now.
Although it didn't close correctly when I tried to save and quit. It hangs on the credits screen which also looks kinda garbled. screenshot:

Normal quitting works.
Thanks for your help and many thanks for this cool game! :)
My system:
ASUS EEE 1000H
WinXP SP3
2GB RAM
1,6 GHz

thelaptop, it should work, especially if you set native resolution and fullscreen.
Kolya, did it properly create a save-file?
Also thanks for the report, will try to test it somewhere on a EEE-like PC.

A working save file gets created.
