        Leadwerks::Window* window = Leadwerks::Window::Create();
        Context* context = Context::Create(window);
        Sound* sound = Sound::Load("Sound/Music/menutheme.wav");
        sound->Play();

        while (true)
        {
                if (window->Closed() || window->KeyDown(Key::Escape)) return false;
                context->SetColor(0, 0, 0, 0);
                context->Clear();

                context->SetColor(1, 1, 1, 0);

                context->DrawText("Sound length: " + String(sound->GetLength()) + " seconds", 2, 2);
                context->SetBlendMode(Blend::Solid);

                context->Sync();
