I'm trying to make a simple game in LWJGL but no matter what I do I just get a black screen and it becomes unresponsive. Here is the code that opens the window:

package src;

import org.lwjgl.LWJGLException;
import org.lwjgl.input.Keyboard;
import org.lwjgl.input.Mouse;
import org.lwjgl.opengl.Display;
import org.lwjgl.opengl.DisplayMode;

import src.Wall.Pos;

import static org.lwjgl.opengl.GL11.*;

public class MyGame {
public void Loop()
{
    Display.setResizable(false);

    Display.setTitle("My Game");

    try
    {
        Display.setDisplayMode(new DisplayMode(640, 480));
        Display.create();
    }
    catch (LWJGLException e)
    {
        e.printStackTrace();
        System.exit(0);
    }

    Wall.Load();

    Wall wall = new Wall(500, 500, 30, Wall.Pos.Vertical);

    glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
    glLoadIdentity();
    glOrtho(0, Display.getDisplayMode().getWidth(), 0, Display.getDisplayMode().getHeight(), -1, 1);
    glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);

    Display.sync(60);

    while(!Display.isCloseRequested())
    {
        glClear(GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT | GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

        boolean Up = Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_UP);
        boolean Down = Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_DOWN);
        boolean Left = Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_LEFT);
        boolean Right = Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_RIGHT);
        boolean Swap = Mouse.isButtonDown(0);

        wall.RenderWall();
    }

    Display.destroy();
}

}

I don't know what I did wrong but does anyone know why nothing is working?

Hi there. GDSE considers a question to be "localized" (not relevant to the wider community) if all you're doing is asking us to debug your code for you. – Sean Middleditch Feb 4 at 2:56

... in this particular case, I think the question could be rephrased to be less localised, addressing a real problem, I the title was something other than "not working" (something more googleable) and a minimal code sample was provided. – Liosan Feb 4 at 8:08

This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.
