Shortcut key to exit fullscreen game (SOLVED)

Hi,
I was running Defold demo game, which entered fullscreen. Now I am not able to exit window. Is there any keyboard shortcut ? Pressing Esc doesn’t help.

Can you check if the checkbox "Escape Quits Game" is enabled? This can be found at the Preferences tab under File in de editor. This is very handy when you want to test your game.

You could also send a message to exit the game. Create a new trigger for key-esc in your .input_binding file and call the action escape for example.

function on_input(self, action_id, action)
	if action_id == hash("escape") then
		msg.post("@system:", "exit", {code = 0})
	end
end

Or even better is to call:

sys.exit(code)

@amel Yes, That’s exactly missing. I checked in Defold > File > Preferences > General tab.
By default, it was unchecked.

Thank you for the support!
