whenever I try to open the game, the entire screen is black and unresponsive. sorry to be a bother! but do you have any idea what common mistakes I could have made to cause this?

My first guess would be a permissions error. If on Windows, try opening the game as administrator, or moving the game's folder to your desktop and opening it. If the second option works, you need to shorten the filepath for your game. If you are on Mac, try moving the game into your "applications" folder, or assigning read/write permissions to the game folder. This link should help with changing the permissions. https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/mac-help/mchlp1203/mac

If those solutions do not help, please let me know what version of the game you are trying to run. (Windows, Mac, ect.) If on a Mac, please check what operating system version you and on and let me know, as that can also impact things. Additionally, when starting the game and experiencing the black screen, does audio play? If you press z, do you hear a confirmation sound effect? That can help me figure out what's going on, whether the game isn't launching, or the screen simply isn't displaying anything. Thanks.

Thank you so much! Sorry again for the inconvenience.
