Just bought this game on GOG, I had heard that this game had a fair share of compatibility issues but supposedly ran fine on Windows 8. I'm running Windows 8.1 64-bit and the game is definitely running slow. The cursor also flashes and all background animations freeze whenever I'm moving my mouse.

I've tried every compatibility mode/option suggested and I can't seem to get the game to run well. I would really like to play this game at optimal performance as it seems very interesting.
So if you are having issues from buying this on the resent 2014 sale. This is what I used to fix it.

First create a new shortcut (you may be able to use the goglauncher one but I have not tried),

Add to the target -window -e . This must be on the outside of the " .

This may be all that you need to do but I would also check the compatibility page and make sure that Win 98 is checked and that you have run in admin.

With these I have found no issues so far ,smooth playback on cut scenes, and the loading that I was getting prior is non existent.

I hope this helps these rest of you.

Thank you for responding. As for your fix, it does make the game run much smoother. However, my game crashes after cutscenes with the -e added to it. Not sure why though, do you know what -e does?
