So I hopped on this collection today. What can I say, I'm a sucker for retro arcade games, even if I am not too good at shoot em ups, which seems to be a majority of the games.

(And for some reason, a light gun game which doesn't seem to allow you to aim?)

Anyway, upon launching the collection, the main menu looks fine. Go into the options and....errm...something is not quite right here.
Seems like some of the contents is V-flipped. Other bits isn't.

Same thing happens with the games menu, which, for some reason, the screenshot didn't save for.

I think the games themselves might run okay (Though I hit the lightgun game and couldn't get anything working there)

I managed to run it fine by manually specifying to use the Nvidia graphics chip when running. But I usually prefer the Intel graphics if it can manage, as it tends to run cooler on my laptop.

Does anyone know of a fix for this?
Attachments:
I was able to run the game with Intel graphics without encountering the issue (using WINE).

Relevant specs:
* Intel i5-4670
* Intel HD 4600 graphics
* Using lutris from debian bullseye repository, wine version is 6.0.x (don't remember which one)

I have encountered some slowdown in the menu, and some in games (which I suspect might be in the original game, particularly since I happened to play a part of Crystalis that has an unusually large number of enemies on the screen). Aside from this, the game does seem to run just fine, and the options look normal to me.

Maybe try upgrading or downgrading your graphics drivers and see if that helps?
Good call, I've become so complacent with Windows 10 managing my drivers I didn't actually consider manually fetching and installing updates.

Alas, no luck

Specs:
Intel Core i7-3537U
8GB DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 4000 / NVIDIA GeForce 740M
Running Windows 10 20H2 64-bit

As noted, it is not really that big a deal for me. It runs fine with the NVidia thing.
Just a curious bug to have happen, and anyone with a laptop with switchable graphics might encounter the same issue and not consider the option to run with different 3D hardware.

Same issue, plus none of the games actually play as they only show a black screen/field where the gfx would be.

On an Celeron N2840 CPU, without dedicated graphics.
possible fix. for intel they have mesa 3d for windows... to set it up you have to create a special folder.

For Beast Busters, player 1, I continued used xbox wired controller left analog stick move right trigger shoot.
I had mapped all the keyboard keys for p1-p3
