just finished the demo on steam, I think I will be getting it when it comes out. It has been a while since i have played anything with that style of gameplay.

If anyone does get the full version could you let us know if it scales full screen or just caps at a certain resolution like the demo below.

The full game is flash, and it's capped at that resolution. Higher resolutions in "fullscreen" mode simply gives you a black surround. This is a game that will be played in a window by most.
Is it possible to enlarge the game window to fit in my big screen?

Unfortunately not, you can view the game only in 100% mode (1250x790px) or 80% mode (1000x632px).


That said, the art direction is wonderful, and the quirky humor is endearing. The puzzles sometimes take what I would call "creative" leaps of logic but overall I'm enjoying the game.

Also, "Do not use CCleaner or you will lose your saves" as the saves are stored as flash temp files.

Loving the game, the music and atmosphere are great... very hard, but not too horrible.

It can't fill the screen because it is drawn one size, I assume... enlarging it would look crappy.
