To date, I have had no problems running a game in the manner which was configured by the designer, except that I never play anything I can help in a window.  The window is great for testing your own game, and maybe for the beta tester, but the rest of us want to be immersed in the game.  So please, uncheck "run in window" before releasing your game.

That said, the only game where I fussed with the setup any more than that (besides choosing the English translation,) was KQ3 by IA.  The sprites and backgrounds were all beautiful 320x200, but the character portraits were mediocre 640x400.  Why?  It clashed so bad I had to force it into 320x200.

Finally, after having ranted on the topic hijack; I will implement a gamma adjustment slider in my game.  Thank you for the heads-up.

I don't really understand why the 320x200 (and scaling thereof) options aren't just greyed out in hi-res games, as they will most likely make the game unplayable and certainly doesn't look anything like the artist meant it to do.

This is to enable people with slow computers to still play hi-res games, by downgrading them to 320x200. If someone has a slow PC, wouldn't you rather they could play your game at 320x200 rather than just not play it at all because it's too slow?
