This is critical information that should be included in the op. You’re jumping through a few hoops here on a comparably weak pc device. No surprise you’re having these issues, sorry.
I’ve tried playing this game via GameNative on an AYN Thor myself because I thought a handheld would be perfect for this kind of game. I’m on the steam version instead of Epic, but I can confirm that there’s a monsterous load time when playing the PC version through GameNative. Subsequent launches were faster, especially after I lowered a setting in the menus regarding how it loads data from disk.
But even then, I had a lot of broken textures and models and semi frequent crashes too. I really recommend playing on traditional hardware for the time being.
GameNative has been actual witchcraft for a bunch of games, I’m playing Mina that way myself right now. But yeah for whatever reason, Cassette Beasts isn’t playing nice with it yet.

Nope. I got the game for free from Epic Games some time back. I use a program called GameNative to play PC games on android.

Thought so. Your startup time and crashes are almost certainly attributable to running it via gamenative than the game itself.
