scene loads empy play but stays a play button.

I read a lot of google sites on this issue all that seem to be different causes. When I hit play I get a blank scene and the play button is not changing to stop, it remains play. I added the scene in the build menu ( I think it should give a warn tip if left empty) and the scene does match my scene name in the editor. I tried playing the exe I created with build but I see the same empty scene. What else can I try? I saw a lot of issues with missing tabs or dropdowns not selected but its all really old editors and I’m not sure what to try.

looks like my camera was jacked up, playing with it put it back in to the scene and now I see it.
