Hi! I literally just got the game an hour ago, but I cant figure out how to start it! I bought the account, and I can log in just fine on Minecraft.net. I've tried clicking everything on the launch screen. THe logout button and play button I can;t click. The Edit Profile and New Profile Buttons I can click, but they don't do anything whatsoever, I still remain on the same window. Please help =(
