Can't seem to get a simple game loop going.

So 2 days ago I got my calculator for Christmas, am cool now Cool.
I've been trying to get a simple game loop to work that ends when you press the ENTER button.

Here's the code (pretty much the whole thing except for some util functions):

Code:
SJQ_gameloop:
   ld HL, vRam
   ld DE, %1110011111100000
   ld BC, 320 * 240
   call SJQ_MemSet16
   
   call _GetCSC
   cp A, 105
   jp NZ, SJQ_gameloop
SJQ_gameend:
   call _homeup
   call _ClrScrnFull
   ret


It seems to just get stuck in an infinite loop, and I end up having to reset it to try again.
What am I doing wrong when comparing it with 105 (the ENTER button code)?
Assembly uses different keycodes; 105 is the BASIC keycode of Enter. Take a look at skEnter in this include file.
Sola Fide
105 is not the ENTER key code. Try using skEnter (09h) instead of 105.
My projects: Wordle | CEleste | Unit Tool | Tanks! | Terminal CE
It works, thanks, but a second kinda "bug" happens, if I try to turn off the calculator before pressing enter, and then pressing enter then this screen appears:
The on key is meant to break out of programs, which is good in case something like an infinite loop is reached... You can disable this behavior, but I would advise against it.
Here is the link to OnBlock by Mateo, which disables the on button breaking out of programs. The source code is included.
