one way:

+ Code Snippet

SetWindowSize(640,360,0)
SetVirtualResolution( 640,360)
SetSyncRate( 30, 0 ) 
SetScissor( 0,0,0,0 )
UseNewDefaultFonts( 1 ) 

ThisTXT = CreateText("GAME OVER")
SetTextSize(ThisTXT,36)	:	SetTextAlignment(ThisTXT,1)
SetTextPosition(ThisTXT,320,150)

do
	If GetRawKeyReleased(27)  then End //[ESC]
	
	If Last# + 1.0 <= Timer()
		If GetTextVisible(ThisTXT) then SetTextVisible(ThisTXT,0) else SetTextVisible(ThisTXT,1)
		Last# = Timer()
	EndIf
	
    Sync()
loop
