Come On Developers

I didn't really get a chance to play the game beyond a few minutes, so I can't really comment on the gameplay, but there were a few things that made me give up and jump straight to review. First and foremost, the menu options. I realize that this is a game that pays tribute to classic RPG's, but there's absolutely no excuse for releasing this game without the option to easily change the resolution. I was forced to either play in windowed mode, which was so small that it was virtually unplayable, or play in full screen mode, which was locked in a stretched 4x3 aspect ratio. Why on earth would you release the game without giving the user the option to play the game in a proper aspect ratio? I'm fine with playing a game in 4x3 aspect ratio, but at least give us the option to have borders. Secondly, I tried to play the game using a controller, but for some reason they made the controller settings needlessly complicated. The only way to access the controller is to press F1 (only in windowed mode) and manually set the controller buttons one at a time. It's 2021 people ... this is lazy an inexcusable on the part of the developers. Lastly, I have to say that the box art is some of the worst I have ever seen. Believe me when I say that I love classic box art, but this is in a league of it's own. Normally I wouldn't complain about something so trivial, but it stood out like a sore thumb in my games list. That being said ... perhaps the gameplay is good, but these three reasons were enough to make me uninstall.
