The game consistently crashes to desktop when attempting to cancel the creation of a new world.
Steps to Reproduce:
Start the game and select "Singleplayer".
Click the "Create New World" button.
On the world creation screen, optionally enter a world name or change any settings.
Click the "Cancel" button at the bottom left of the screen, OR press the "ESC" key.
The game immediately crashes and generates a crash report.
Expected Result:
Clicking "Cancel" or pressing "ESC" should exit the creation screen and return the user to the previous (Singleplayer) menu without issues.
Actual Result:
The game crashes completely and closes.
