alt-tab doesnt work in a certain game

[moo]

I'm playing a game called Survival Project and every time
I try to Alt-Tab out of it, it alt-tabs out, then 2
milliseconds later, it goes back in. Does anyone know of
a way to make it so I'm able to Alt-Tab out of this game
for as long as I want? Thanks.

Some games take over the ALT functions.

....Any idea on how to override it?

You should try having a low resource app open to Alt-Tab to. Alt-Tab isn't
meant to get you to the Desktop, it is meant to get you to the next open
app. If you are only running one app you are most likely just tabbing back
to itself. Try opening calc.exe or something small like that first. If the
game is preventing you from Alt-tabbing then that isn't going to help.
