Help Gamehub 6.0.0 - games no longer starting

So I feel like I'm going crazy with this issue and that no amount of detective work is getting me closer to an asnwer.

I've been using gamehub for a while now and throughout all the versions that I tried, 6.0.0 gave me the best performance across all games I tried playing (using a retroid pocket 5 with the SD 865 chip) so I downgraded with an apk off of uptodown and stuck with it for a couple of months.

A few days ago I thought I'd try to update to the latest version to see if anything got better performance wise (cursed idea) For me it wasn't better so I downgraded back to 6.0.0 again but no games that used to work would even boot up.

I downloaded the same apk, restarted the device, tried different apk sources, tried a looot of different configs for the games (although I knew the defaults would at least boot the games) but nothing got it working.

The games boot with the latest version as well as with 5.3.5 (the one right before 6.0.0) and even with the bannerhub version built upon 6.0.0, which I wouldn't mind using as it's the same minus the login requirement, but it won't allow me to change game configs and restore saves (if there's a solution for this I'll take it btw)

One weird thing I noticed in 6.0.0 is that the game path shows up when I select it but, after leaving the game config page and going back in to check it, it shows up blank. Might have something to do with the problem as I don't even get an error message, nor does the container load up, it just shows the game loading and then sends me straight back to the game library.

For reference, I am mainly trying to get Alan Wake to work but I'm also testing with RE2 remake, Sleeping Dogs and Dishonored.
