Crap... Does it say anything? It might be something to do with antiviruses. I had a friend try it and it triggered his antivirus for whatever reason and he suspected it might be because I forgot to add stuff like publisher name in the export, leading windows to think it's suspicious.
Edit: I can probably easily fix that but unfortunately I can't make any changes until the jam is over t_t
It might be a performance problem then on my end. Did it switch scene when you press start? was it just the background itself, without the menu and player splash screen in the start? And do you hear dialogue beeps after you start?
I did some testing and got a similar situation but under different condition. If the player were to run past and attract all the enemy and they all start firing their projectiles, it would cause the game to lag out and it bugs out the camera to where it is just the background. But it does not happen for me at the start.
It could also be a problem with how I exported the resolution and window settings if you don't mind sharing it. I did windowed borderless at 1080p because it was easier for me to quickly work with, but forgot to switch it to a more friendly one for others. Other than that, I don't really know what to do. Last ditch effort would be trying to use a controller instead as it affects the camera a bit differently.
Then I'm not sure what to do. It shouldn't even turn grey because the parallax background mirrors both X and Y. Stuff obviously loads in, but maybe somehow it's being deleted from the scene? The game starts with a black screen that fades out and then deletes itself from the scene, but it shouldn't delete the whole scene. Sorry I couldn't be of any help 😔.
