I figured out how to make it work. I needed to use a HotkeyEvent and reactivate my main window at the end of the message handler

Open in online IDE

HotKeyEvent(1, 0, $102, 0, 0, 0, 0, WinMain)

;message handler
Repeat
	EvntID = WaitEvent()
	Select EvntID
		Case $102
			If EventData() = 1
				result = Confirm("Terminate Game?")
				If result = True Then End
			EndIf
	End Select
	ActivateGadget WinMain
Forever
