Game launches too big for screen, can't play
Hello everyone. After a long time away from Stardew Valley, I updated it today and tried to play, but I have a problem: the game launches way too big for my screen, to the point where I can only see a corner of the menu screen. I can't see any of the options that would let me start the game or change the settings. I've tried toggling pretty much every compatibility option and none of them have any effect. Anyone have any idea how I can fix this bug? If nothing works, I'm thinking of trying a complete reinstall...

You could try the zoom function ingame, found in options.

Just out of curiosity but are you playing in windowed mode? Could be the resolution is set too high if that's the case.

Can't see the options because the screen is too zoomed in :(

Nope, in full-screen mode

You don't need to see it if you select it with a controller. ;)

Try Exploring to %appdata% or C:\Users\(your name)\AppData\Roaming\StardewValley and delete the startup_preferences file, then run the game.
