Default A Few Questions

1.) Is the demo coming out before the full game release?

2.) Can the game be run in a window as well as full screen?

3.) Can the sound/music be turned off?

Thanks in advance!

1) Maybe. The developers are still working on it.

2) I have only run it in full, I would need to check.

3) Yes you can turn both off.

2) yes, you can;
the game shows you all video modes supported by your graphics card/driver, as soon as you select a mode with equal or less resolution than your desktop setting it lets you switch to windowed mode.

Windowed mode works really well, BTW. It is my preferred style with this particular game. You see, sometimes one is supposed to be doing work-things but there's this game . . . and, err . . . that means you need to step in and out of it quickly.

Thanks for the answers everyone. Being able to run in a window and with sound off helps with the, err, work issue.

I have another question now, is there an advantage to pre-ordering the game versus just waiting until later?

It's cheaper when you pre-order I think, it assures that you get you copy right away.
