Sure it works.

Before executing your program enter the debugger and set the breakpoint on 
the address $9D95 pressing the F2.
Now press F5 and execute your program.

The program will stop at the breakpoint.
Press F8 to step to _getkey command.

You must always use breakpoints if you want to track the execution.
