Anyone else get an update?

Since Hot Wheels on Epic Games is crashing, I decided to buy it from Steam and to my surprise the game works perfectly without any crashes. However, I decided to link my Epic Games account because I have friends on Epic Games who got the game and are playing normally. Guess what my surprise was when I decided to enter the visual editor and start a quick race... That's right, the same "FATAL ERROR" error that made me leave epic appeared here in my steam game... This means, the Epic Games Overlays...

Can I play with a friend playing from epic games while I open it from steam?

anyone know how to fix this game issue hotwheels unleashed on steam deck? i can't play the game. Every time I go to the map and select a level, it always gets stuck on the loading screen. and suddenly it went blank, force closed and said "fatal error". Even though previously I was playing fine, it happened suddenly. I've looked for a solution on YouTube but there's no answer. because everyone uses Windows OS, while I use Steam OS. because I use a steam deck....

It's supposedly verified, but as soon as I start a race i get a Windows dialog saying "Fatal error! OK". Also I got the achievement for completing the tutorial just by starting the game, no tutorial in sight...
