For some reason, the background is white, making it impossible to read the majority of the text.

if anyone has this same issue, here is a scuffed as hell hack because I don't know how QML files work:

  1. download the git repo and dependencies:
    https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term/wiki/Build-Instructions-(Linux)

  2. before you run qmake && make open the file /cool-retro-term/app/qml/SettingsWindow.qml and add color: "#282a33" underneath the parameters for width and height

(change the color to whatever your theme uses for dialogs)

  1. run qmake && make

  2. replace the old cool-retro-term with the patched one:
    sudo cp ./cool-retro-term /usr/bin/cool-retro-term

As a workaround, I found that

XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=none cool-retro-term

will trick Qt into thinking it's not running under KDE, and you'll get the default Qt text and background colors instead.

I think CRT should choose a color for settings which will work in both dark and light mode
