Issues unresolved

Prologue fails to launch

Separate prologue fails to launch because of missing Java file. Fix is rather complicated, so it is recommended to watch the prologue online, as it contains very little interactivity.

Issues fixed

Game does not fullscreen properly with Intel HD

The game in fullscreen mode might only take up a portion of the screen.

Windowed mode workaround^[3]
Enable windowed mode in game or in launcher. Press `Alt`+`↵ Enter` to enable fullscreen.
