It is a common problem for machines with multiple GPUs that some graphics drivers may register the game as a non-graphics intensive program, causing it to use the wrong GPU.

This is mostly seen with laptops that have an integrated Intel GPU. Most integrated Intel GPUs cannot support the correct version of OpenGL so the game either crashes or has severe visual artifacts.

Testing

An easy way to check if Hazeron Starship is using the wrong GPU is with Windows Task Manager. Start it and check which GPU is receiving the load when starting the game.

Solution

This depends a lot on the brand of GPU and version of the installed driver software.

NVIDIA graphics cards

ATI/AMD Radeon Cards
