The MESSAGE command seems to mess up at least the conditional variable.

The internal GetRawKeyPressed and GetRawKeyState values are set during Sync.

That's ok - but the bug remains.

Yeah,

but when the message box disappears after you clicked it, the code should print out 0, because the keystate is NOT PRESSED, and there's a sync inside the loop.
Nevertheless, it prints out 1.

if you replace
with
it works correctly.

Technically, Increase is correct. Although keystates are updated with a 'Sync()' call, most keys do not reset correctly for state checks after app interruption. For examples, 9 (tab), 13 (enter), as well as 27 (escape) will all fail to reset for state checking after a message box or other interruption. So even after the app/game is restored, the state check still shows '1' until the same key is redundantly pressed and released a second time.

An exception to this is the alt key. Both indexes 18 and 262 will reset to 0 after app interruption.

So it is, in a general sense, a bug. I'd recommend reporting it on the GitHub list.
