Resolution Issues
I'm having issues whenever I attempt to run the game. It is remniscent of the resolution being too high. I can hear the game's music and I can hear the menu when I try to interact with it, but I cannot see anything. I have attempted numerous times to change the resolution to what my monitor can handle (1280 x 1024) via launch settings in properties but it hasn't worked and I still cannot see the game (I used this fix when Dear Esther was launching at too high a resolution and it worked then). Any suggestions to fixes or more generally what the issue might be would be greatly appreciated.

System info:
OS: Windows 7
Processor: Intel Core i7-3820
Motherboard: EVGA X79 FTW
Graphics card: EVGA GeForce GTX 650
RAM: 16Gb

Thanks in advance for any diagnosises (I have no idea what the plural of diagnosis is) and any potential fixes.

For Tiny and Big, this can be done including the option "--fullscreen=0" (without quotation marks) on "Properties -> Set Launch Options" when right-clicking the game on your library. While windowed. I could set resolution properly, and got it working.

I ended up upgrading my monitor (which I was intending to do even when I posted this) so unfortunately I don't have an answer. Sorry.

So what if you launch in windowed mode but the resolution doesn't allow you to see the menu or the options?

Same problem, amendment to the Launch Options described above worked. Start with game pad connected if using one.
