Question about EXE and DAT

Hello.

I'm doing a short game that has a title screen and two gameplay screens (stage1 and stage2). Suppose I divided the game into three GED files. At the time of export, I need to export the title screen as EXE (Windows) and the stages as DAT files. Is this correct?

I want to avoid an user run the stage1 directly, without see the main screen. He must run only the main screen file. Please, I would like to understand how to have just one EXE with multiple GEDs.

Best!

Do be aware you can still run the levels by dragging .DAT files on any .EXE that was compile by ge, a major flaw if you ask me

Also if you're wondering how to load other .DAT files, simply use LoadGame("level1.dat"); or whatever you level file may be
