Develop on Mac deploy on Windows Issue

I'm very new to G-E, just developing a quick game to help my son with math. I'm using the caveman tutorial as a basis for the game.
I'm developing on my Mac and deploying to his PC. Everything works except that the text box for entering answers doesn't show up, which makes it hard to enter the correct answer. More accurately the text box shows up sometimes but not always and not consistently.

I've tried developing on his PC but I can't even open my ged file on his PC. I'm attaching a zip of the game. Thanks in advance for any help.

I can't open the GED on my PC either... this is a question for Skydereign.

The four dinosaur bmp files are what is causing the ged to freeze when loading. I'd recommend trying to resave them and load it that way. Otherwise you can load it by removing the dinosaur images from the data directory before loading the ged.

Thanks for the info on the bmp files. I've modified them and now I can get it to load on the PC. I'm still having the problem with the answer box showing up as an inconsistent size. Sometimes it has no spaces and sometimes is has plenty of room to type the answer. Any suggestions? I've uploaded the new zip of the ged.
