Description
While running Spaceship Warlock Demo 1.1.1 downloaded from the ScummVM demo page, after several minutes ScummVM gets in an infinite loop. A spaceship blasts off while the jingle plays ("Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh! Spaceeeeshiiiip War-lock!"), and then it repeats ad infinitum. The scummvm.log
file just shows this line repeated every three seconds until I force quit:

The demo is designed to loop from the beginning, for computer dealers to show off. The jumping around softlock should be fixed by https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/pull/6227/commits/81a678e18b43a337ccabff2ea119d78d2718e6ec when it gets merged in.
There is no longer a softlock at this point. Instead, the whole demo repeats (and softlocks at a later point with an alien jumping around). I don't know if repeating the whole demo is the correct behavior or not.
