Hi, altogether!
The game doesn't start on a freshly installed Linux Mint (Linux 4.15.0-29-generic #31-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 17 15:39:52 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
I installed all required packages mentioned in the product card. The start argument "--log" doesn't produce anything. Directly starting "./game/Dott" doesn't make a difference. journalctl doesn't report any messages during launch.
I tried to launch the game with the integrated Intel-GPU and the discrete AMD-GPU (both meet or exceed the minimum requirements for OpenGL and GLSL and both use open source drivers). I didn't notice any problems in other games so far.
Integrated Intel GPU
$ DRI_PRIME=0 glxinfo |grep Device
Device: Mesa DRI Intel(R) HD Graphics 620 (Kaby Lake GT2) (0x5916)
$ DRI_PRIME=0 glxinfo |grep version
server glx version string: 1.4
client glx version string: 1.4
GLX version: 1.4
Max core profile version: 4.5
Max compat profile version: 3.0
Max GLES1 profile version: 1.1
Max GLES[23] profile version: 3.2
OpenGL core profile version string: 4.5 (Core Profile) Mesa 18.0.5

OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.2 Mesa 18.0.5
OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.20
Discrete AMD GPU:
$ DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo |grep Device

OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.1 Mesa 18.0.5

I'm out of ideas. Can I provide more information to solve this?
