Issues fixed

Blue screen

After the loading screen, the game displays a blue background with an active cursor, but doesn't otherwise function. The only options is to toggle windowed mode with the standard key stroke, or closing the game.[1][2][3]

The issue can be bypassed by switching computers, but no specific fix for an individual computer.
