recently i've been running into an issue where, when i launch the game it loads fine, but when it comes to the actual game itself, the UI elements seem to be completely gone and it's just a text adventure at this point, any advice?
Yeah the Prefs file. If that hasn't worked, I would recommend the nuclear option, delete everything and redownload a fresh copy. If that doesn't work, we're going to be even more confused than we already are with what's going on with your game.
fixed it! apparently i had two versions installed, and when i clicked the git for the newer one, it redirected to the older version, so that's the prefs i had to delete, thanks for the help ^^
