Santa Claus in Trouble (HD)

no fullscreen? no original music?
Hi guys, so everything is running fine but the game feels off mostly for a couple reasons:
1. I set the resolution to 1440p (as is my monitor) but the game still runs with black bars both vertical and horizontal.
2. I remember the original music was really great. Maybe I'm talking about "Santa Claus in trouble... Again". The in-game music is nothing like it. Is this simply a different game? So sad the one I'm used to is not available here? :(

Yeah the music was a big part of it, the new one is fine, great pieces, but the old ones were magnificent. They commented before on the lack of old tracks, reasoning being poor quality of the tracks themselves or something similar.

Well, that's strange. The game should always stretch to the whole screen.
Could you post a screenshot? (You can also use the Steam screenshot function and share it to the community).

Thanks I fixed it by disabling "Integer Scaling".

So there is no music from "Santa Claus In Trouble...Again" in this game? :( Do you plan to release that game as well? It has the same game engine so it might not be too difficult for you to do?

Good to know!

The original music is technically of a very bad quality due to its strong compression and unfortunately, we lost the master tracks.
Both parts of Santa Claus are now part of the HD remake.

Oh my, the soundtrack was such a HUGE part of allure of the SCIT...Again. So sad it's no longer available. Maybe it's possible to reconstruct/add to the game by recording music from the original game and then add it to the HD? The original game is still available to find online. And even of bad quality it would be so nice to have at least as an option. Maybe I'm asking too much, and certainly not expecting anything, but had to suggest.
