MCL-653The new launcher does not ever load the Minecraft game to play.
Downloaded the new launcher today with no issues at the Mojang.com, Minecraft 1.6 pre-release. However when you click "play" the minecraft game never loads. In case it was a corrupt download I removed it and reinstalled with the same result. The following is a copy of what is shown in the development console, which is as far as it gets. No game screen, worlds, or anything else seen.
