Starting a game that dosen't take up whole screen

[mmatusz305]

Every time I tried starting up a game, it always goes to full screen. I do not want that. I want it to start up on a smaller screen (so I can access other programs on my windows). Anyone how how I can do this?

You could try adding -windowed into the launch settings.

Or Perhaps use the ALT+TAB function of windows, if that's what you use.

How do I do that?

Go to your library. Right click it and go to properties and then click set launch options.

I do and it gives me a window to type something in. Oh, it says advanced settings too.... So I have no idea what to type in this window. I was able to click on the window when the game loads to prevent it from blowing up on my screen but it's not letting me do that tonight.

When you get that small box type
-windowed
Then click ok.

It is not working on this game. Is there another command?

It looks like it's an RPGmaker game, have you tried ALT and Enter whilst you are in game?
Okay, I've just downloaded the game, it is an RPGmaker game. You're forced to play it fullscreen.

It is an RPG maker game although I can only play it when steam is loaded. I tried ALT and Enter while I was in the game, it did shrink the screen but the game still took up the entire screen.
