VKQuake crash help

I've just downloaded VKQuake and it launches but it crashes soon after with the error "vkQueueSubmit Failed"..
I tried putting it into a fresh re-install Quake folder but still the same problem...
Quakespasm works fine for me though.

What's going on here?
Thanks

Most likely your video card doesn't support Vulcan or drivers need updating.

I was thinking that. So does VKQuake exclusively have to use Vulcan? I haven't had any issues running quake or other games till now but my laptop isn't a gaming computer with any special graphics card

Of course, that's the intention. From its page:

vkQuake is a port of id Software's Quake using Vulkan instead of OpenGL for rendering. It is based on the popular QuakeSpasm and QuakeSpasm-Spiked ports and runs all mods compatible with QuakeSpasm like Arcane Dimensions.
