That's true. Problem is that you're using Embedded tools for compiling which are made to produce Wince 3.0 code. I use Visual C++ 6 with WinCE tools for VC and WinCE 2.11 SDK.
With that setup, source compiles perfectly and the menu and task bar are visible.

But if it uses gx internally... Did you make it work like that at the end?

I'll release the version with several requested game supported. Tempest will be among them, so if you don't get too far in making it work, you'll just have to wait a bit more.
