I'm currently trying to create a game that runs in the background, so it would be nice if there was a way to make the window invisible.

Why do you need this library at all if you are not going to draw anything? Tell me how you want to use macroquad and maybe I can help.

@KurlykovDanila Well, I wanted to create an application that is normally hidden, except for an icon in the notification area (on windows). The idea was to only show the window after some time had passed. Kinda like a game version of a pomodoro timer, where the game shows up after a set amount of time to notify you that you should take a break and to present you a small minigame to help you get your mind off of what you're doing.

It would be nice to do that in a single process, which is why making an invisible window would be beneficial.
