Neat game. Any way to force non-desktop resolution?

Very neat game - too bad it doesn't store a record of what glyphs you got previous attempts.

One question though - is there any way to force a full screen resolution? It always seems to pick the resolution of the desktop. My laptop is connected to a 1080p monitor, but chugs at that resolution, so my options seem to be limited to either playing in a window or changing desktop resolution prior to starting the game.

Yeah, Intel chips aren't made for gaming... Still, game looks great and it's amazing it can perform almost smoothly at 1080p on this weak sucker!

I've only played the demo but is has a "readme" file that points out the following shortcuts:

-fullscreen : set the game to run in full screen mode
-window : set the game to run in windowed mode
-nosound : causes the game to run without sounds
-w N : set screen/window width to N pixels
-h N : set screen/window height to N pixels

E.g.

Code:

"C:\Program Files\Shrapnel Games\Brainpipe Demo\brainpipe.exe" -w 1280 -h 1024 -window
