Hi, this maybe not your solution, but I just wanna mention this.
I bought the game from Steam and installed it, started it, and got a message from my antivirus(
Avast) software. It was about launching the game in
Sandbox(some kind of isolated environment which the antivirus software provides), the advice which I ignored. I chose to open the game in normal environment instead.
Then, nothing. NOTHING. A Steam window saying "Preparing to launch Anomaly..." appeared for a second, and a black screen would blink for a moment, and the game closed. In short, the game won't launch at all! I desperately looked for solution in vain, and I recalled that antivirus option message. When I changed my antivirus setting to
let the game open in Sandbox, the game finally started normally.
I don't know about your security system but hope this would help your issue
