[SOLVED] Trying to run Sonic Mania, but it keeps closing immediately...

I'm trying to use Heroic to run Sonic Mania from Epic Games, but after it opens it immediately closes (if that window even WAS the game, and not some other process). WineTricks, when I check it in Heroic, keeps saying that [insert thing here] is missing (it changes each time I check), then immediately closing the WineTricks window, so I can't read anything past it. I'm on an Apple M1 Macbook Pro, and I have had the worst kind of luck with anything relating to Wine. Hoping I'll get an answer and get Heroic to work, but I won't be surprised if this is yet another dead end I'm facing. Here's the logs it showed me for my support ticket:

Issue resolved: All I had to do was go into the game-page settings, hit "Other", and change the executable path to "SonicMania.exe". It's working perfectly now! This is the ONLY launcher/program to actually succeed in getting a windows game working on my macbook pro!
