So I am having the following issue. My first room in the game has several items in them, among others there is a Desk.

The desk was always perfectly visible and would also be described in the game. However, all of a sudden it just says "an" instead of "A desk" I can look at the desk, interact with the desk...it just doesn't show up for some reason

As you can see, the desk is NOT in the game screen OR in the bar to the right. There's just an empty spot

any help would be appreciated.

You've probably entered a blank Alias for your desk object - you probably put a space in there or something.
