So, Next Fest didn't start out great. Turns out a lot of people couldn't get past the menu since the "New Game" button didn't do anything.
Thanks to a bit of help from the community, and a bit of googling, I believe the issue should now be resolved. But I'll need you all to confirm that for me, so go ahead and try it out :)
My sincerest apologies to anyone who encountered this, I hope you'll give me another chance.
