Shared Game not Loading

I’m working on a game that runs fine in the editor simulator, but when I try and share it it just shows a blank screen. I believe that it’s an error with one of the extensions, but I don’t know which one. I’ve solved this error before by copying all the code into another project and only adding the extensions I needed. This worked fine for a time, but eventually it stopped working again. I don’t really want to go through copying the game over and over and only adding extensions until it breaks, so any help would be appreciated.

my bad, this was because i updated the mini-menu extension. here’s a fixed version of your project:

What exactly causes this issue? My first guess would be that the sim downloads the most recent version of the extension, causing it to hang/break, but that’s just my guess. Will this happen every time an extension gets updated?

they were using the rpg extension, which has a dependency on mini-menu and the recent changes i made to mini-menu caused some breaking changes that affected the rpg extension.

normally that wouldn’t be a problem because the version of the extension is stored with the project, but for some reason i had the version of the mini-menu extension set to master in arcade-rpg’s pxt.json, which caused it to always fetch the latest one.

shouldn’t be a problem for anyone else
