Wow, just played the first 6 or 7 missions. Fantastic game so far. Love the writing and it controls brilliantly. Already have had some solutions to puzzles that made me feel bad ass. Can't wait to play more later.

The demo completely sold me. Love how much fun the jumping mechanic is!

One of the best openings of a game ever.
Most replayable stealth game ever? Holy crap does it feel good to get ghost ratings in this, even more so than Mark of the Ninja were you could cheat with a certain power.

I'm having a lot of fun with this, glad I picked it up.

Ghost ratings might be more than a little tricky for some of these levels. Plate glass muffling upgrade will definitely come in handy.

I'm sold. Will probably pick this up later tonight.
I wanted to try the demo, but the Windows Taskbar blocks the bottom inch of my screen. This means I cannot see any tooltops. I cannot get it to disappear, nor is the game giving me the option to run in Windowed mode. Once I selected resolution and Fullscreen at the beginning I guess I don't get to change my settings -- WTF?
Same thing happens to me in the full game, alt tab and then alt tab back into it, fixes the prob.

Damn the positive impressions are exciting. Can't wait to get home and sit down with this one.
How's the soundtrack? Any comparisons that could be made to describe it?

This wasn't addressed in the Giant Bomb quicklook, but are you able to zoom in the view? I was really struggling to make out some of the details without sitting with my laptop right up in my face. Granted, I wasn't watching it in HD though.
You cant zoom, but I didnt have any issues ingame. The graphics look way nicer than in the videos too.

I hadn't heard about this until popping into this thread, and despite not wanting to purchase new Steam games in an effort to knock some of my Steam backlog out...I'm getting this as a birthday present to myself.

I just want to say that the ending of the demo is genious.
Same problem here. I just did "Auto-hide the taskbar" by going to the taskbar properties.

So I guess story decisions matter? I been click start mission, skipping the whole dialog. But looking at later missions and the achievements...I guess they factor into the ending?!?

Just a quick question - the soundtrack has these bursts of static that seem irrelevant to the pace of the music. Is this normal? Do I need to reinstall?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Alt-tabbing does nothing for me. Taskbar stays at the bottom of the screen, blocking all tooltips.
Does the full version of the game at least let you change video settings? This is pretty ridiculous.
Anyone messed around with the level editor yet?
I created a quick level. It's not very taxing.

You need to put the level in the:
\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Gunpoint\Levels
folder.
I'll play some levels you guys make if you upload them!
That works a treat. Thanks!

I solved the problem by changing the zero on the third row of the file resolution.txt (\SteamApps\common\Gunpoint\Settings) to one. This permanently fixed the problem. My solution makes me believe that I somehow enabled windowed mode during the one time only setup when you start the game for the first time. But this doesn't really make sense either, because the game was still fullscreen with the visible start menu when I tried to use a lower non-native resolution without changing the value on the third row.

I guess it does. I've had one instance where I could tell my contact the truth or straight up lie about the mission objective result. Not sure how that effects the story though, or if it even effects anything. Most of the text message options seem pretty linear.
You can change it in the demo too, but you need to quit to the main menu, its BELOW options.

I love the name of the "You might as well get an achievement for this too" one

Just finished (my first runthrough of) the game. I was surprised at how good the story was, and it seems to warrant a few different runthroughs as well (and not just to mess around with different strategies on each of the levels). Messing around with different strategies on each of the levels should be fun too.
