Galactic hero Serena S has been trolled on Spacebook. This is obviously a cause to embark on an epic quest to punish the troll in question, who just happens to be The Space Prince. Guide Serena through 7 stages of shmup action, jumping, shooting, and yet decidedly more jumping and shooting to her ultimate goal of total testicular annihilation of her foe. Ultionus is a love-letter to the home computer arcade games of the late 80s and early 90s, particularly Halloween Harry, Astro Marine Corps, Duke Nukem 2 and especially Phantis/Game Over II. The game features tons of lovingly crafted pixel art, and a rockin' chiptune soundtrack by the legendary Jake 'Virt' Kaufman.
Probably a long shot, but has anyone else tried the Steam version and can they get it working? The DRM free version works perfectly (and oh man, the game is like childhood injected into my veins, it's brilliant! Amiga sprites, C64 backdrops and SID tunes/SFX, love it) but the Steam version doesn't do anything - neither the standard "Play Ultionus" nor the "Old Intel Launch" options work, the game just crashes immediately without any errors. I even opted into the ultidev "beta" in Steam but still nothing. I know it DOES work since there are no complaints on the Steam forum about it not working, but I'm at a loss :\
It's okay, through trial and error I managed to fix it - turns out it was an app I was running. Not sure which but I'm leaning towards Soluto, all my other background heavy apps were closed and I wasn't running overlay apps either. Thanks though!

(Which I guess isn't very surprising since there's a few million users.)
Game's awesome, but hard as hell!
