Q16: "The game's colors are inverted (red is blue, blue is red)."
A: If you're on an Apple Silicon Macintosh (M1, M2, etc.), you can blame Apple for the bug! Here's 2 fixes:
- PrismLauncher/MultiMC (or forks):
- Use this tutorial: https://github.com/MCPHackers/LaunchWrapper/blob/main/MultiMC.md
- If you don't want to use LaunchWrapper: Fn + F11 to enter fullscreen in-game (or F11 if you've configured the keyboard to prioritize function keys)
- Use this tutorial: https://github.com/MCPHackers/LaunchWrapper/blob/main/MultiMC.md
- Betacraft v2: https://github.com/betacraftuk/betacraft-launcher/releases
Game will crash upon resizing, sadly.
