Hey, I decided this game a try again, however soon after the game launches (like 6-20 seconds) it immediately crashes. I tried re-installing but that didn't seem to work. My Java/Drivers are all seem to be updated to the latest versions too. My computer is within the recommended requirements too. Any fixes??

OS: Windows 7
RAM: 4 GB
Processor: Intel i3 2 core @ 2.4 ghz
Graphics: intel hd graphics (on a laptop)

Here is the crash report file:

Greetings,

Going by Java's crash dump looks like you're using first generation Intel HD graphics. Unfortunately the drivers for these graphics are no longer updated by Intel and often have a compatibility problem when trying to run Spiral Knights and the Steam Overlay at the same time. Thankfully you can usually play the game by disabling the Steam Overlay first and then launching the game.

Instructions for how to disable the overlay can be found on Steam's support pages:
