    I just purchased Planetary Annihilation on steam and after a short download (a few min) the installation was finished. Now when I try to launch the game, nothing happens.

    Edit: I have installed the Uber launcher and the game crashes as soon as I try to open it...

    All of this is on Mac

    Your problem caused by built-in drivers of Windows 8/8.1:
    Code:
              Card name: ATI Radeon 3000 Graphics (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM v1.1)
       Driver Date/Size: 4/26/2013 01:28:10, 1103904 bytes
    You have AMD legacy graphics drivers that distributed together win Windows 8+, but those lack of OpenGL support and this is why game crash. Unfortunately AMD drivers installer unable to replace drivers properly so you need to do that manually using this how-to:
