Issues unresolved

Can't use keyboard

If you have a controller plugged in, you can't control the game with a keyboard. Unplug the controller to keep playing normally.[3]

Issues fixed

"Song playback failed" error

The game crashes with "Song playback failed. Please verify that the song is not DRM protected. DRM protected songs are not supported for creator games." If you get this error, it's because Windows Media Player is not installed, which is used by XNA for some of the sequences in the game. To fix this issue, install Windows Media Player manually and the game should run fine.[3]
