Windowed mode?

Have a question about running a Dreamspike game?

Windowed mode?

Postby Godeke on January 8th, 2009, 2:15 pm

As this is a great casual game for picking up during a break, I find the full screen mode a bit disruptive. (I have two monitors, a lot of memory and generally a dozen things going on at once). Am I missing something that would allow it to operate in a window on the desktop? Currently I have programs that I work on during the day that conflict with full screen mode; having to exit them is less than optimal (because they are slow to exit and load).

I was also thinking about suggesting this. A window mode would be nice. Then I could keep the gaming while I work :roll:

Currently, there is no Windowed Mode. I spent quite a bit of time getting alt+tab to work on every possible operating system, but it would be nice to have a windowed mode as well. It's definitely something I'll put on the to-do list for a future update.

Alt-Tab does seem to work, but the programs in question "fight" fullscreen applications. Mindjet Mind Manager, for example, constantly resets the focus to itself when a full screen app tries to run, so the app comes up, then Mind Manager steals the focus. What gets really annoying in that case is that sometimes the windows desktop comes up in 640x480 after that fight. Amusing to look at, but Vista is challenging to operate at that resolution.

I have a couple of other programs that are less annoying, but tend to pop system modal dialogs that knock the fullscreen out. If I'm going to pull up a game for a long time, I exit all of these, but for a lunch time break the wait can exceed the break.
