anyone having this problem When I open coral island from steam, it opens up completely black, or it opens up so zoomed in and I cannot move the mouse. This is really getting me extremely upset.

Hello @cyan dragon thank you for reaching out to us! If you could replicate the issue, could you record a video and send it here so we can take a closer look?

This is it

#

I just took these videos right now

#

I have Uninstalled the game before and reinstalled it and it did this.

I am now uninstalling it from steam. I have the acer nitro 5 2021 laptop. Let me know if you need any other specs

#

#

This was right this second I recorded it for the general chat and for here.

Thanks for the video!

Could you please try launching the game with the -windowed launch option?

You can do this by going to your Steam Library, right-clicking on Coral Island → Properties → General, then adding -windowed in the Launch Options field.

Let us know if that makes any difference — thanks! goatlove2

So sorry to hear that it’s still not working.

Could you please try changing the launch options again to -w 1920 -h 1080?

Let us know if that helps — thank you!

Hello! I’m part of the team here. From the setup image you shared, we noticed that it looks like you’re playing on a laptop with an external monitor connected.
If you disconnect the monitor and play directly on your laptop screen, does the game still appear zoomed in? 😮

True Idk how but its fixed for now

#

If it happens after this game session can I come back here tmrw

Ah, is it fixed now? If you don’t mind sharing, we’d love to know which step ended up resolving the issue 😊

So the thing is, it has opened up normally before, and then reverted to that problem. So I'll keep you on standby to see if any of those actually worked.

What I did was uninstall and remove the save file from users and app Data and project coral then I reinstalled it and it seems to be stable right nkw idk the save file may have been corrupt?
