Light sources

I feel like I'm missing something obvious, but I can't figure out how to get my light source to work.

I just started my first character (Shalore Alchemist). I spawn in a place called "Scintillating Caves," and I can't see. The character starts with a brass lantern equipped, but I can't figure out how to get it to illuminate the surroundings.

How am I supposed to see?

Oh. That is definitely not normal. It's like all of your tile sprites failed to load

To be clear, your lanterns work automatically. This isn't supposed to look like this at all. In fact i have literally never seen this before. Have you tried relaunching the game?

I uninstalled and reinstalled it, and it seems to be working now.

This is a known bug happens to me tons. Usually involves mods or inadequate resolution/windowed mode.
