microgame tutorial not working

I am trying to follow the lego mircogame tutorial. It seems to load OK, I have 'stuff' in the project and a scene view but if I select "show tutorials" I get half a screen with the tutorials and everything else is squashed to the left, I can of course resize the tutorials pane to see more of the editor but there is no scene view and the instuctions are to play the game to see what it is like, selecting play does not show a game view. I tried adding the scene and game windows from the game menu but that does nothing, I can add other windows like animation though.
If I change the layout to another one then everything works again but I cannot see the tutorials which makes then difficult to follow.

 

Additional - I tried other things with builtin tutorials and get the same error, no scene or game panes.
