I have no idea to what to do about this.
You don't have the font "Minecraftia.ttf". You can either try to find and
install it or replace it with another that you already have in the
/home/pi/.fonts directory.
You may even lie about it, e. g. assuming there is a font called
"NotoSerif-Regular.ttf"
$ cd /home/pi/.fonts
$ ln NotoSerif-Regular.ttf Minecraftia.ttf
should fix the error without making changes to the code.
Thanks for that.
I actually replaced Minecraftia.ttf in the code for
NotoSerif-Regular.ttf, after I put that font in the .font folder.
It now runs without the above errors.
