Hello, I recently bought Prehistoric Kingdom on Steam.
On first launch, the game gets stuck at the loading screen and never reaches the main menu. I have tried:

Verifying game files

Updating GPU drivers (GTX 1650)

Running as administrator

Forcing DirectX 11 and windowed mode

Deleting all local files in %LocalLow%/Blue Meridian

Disabling Steam Cloud and antivirus

The Player.log ends with this error:
Serialization depth limit 10 exceeded at 'PrehistoricKingdom::ScienceResearchable.assignedTeamIndices'...

I have never played before, this happens on first launch.

Any help would be appreciated!
