The configuration tool will run automatically the first time you start the game.
This tool can be used to configure the following:
(The screenshot below shows the configuration tool with a gamepad connected.)

General Settings

• Set Window Size
  Expand the screen to the designated size. (Default: 640px x 480px)
  Raising the resolution will enhance 3D graphics in both full screen mode and windowed mode.
  However, the higher the resolution, the more powerful your PC must be.
  *Due to the game's native resolution of 640x480, some 2D images may appear distorted at higher resolutions.
  *The game may not launch properly if you select a resolution unsupported by your monitor or video card.
  　Please ensure you select a window size supported by your hardware before launching the game.
  
• Set FPS
  Set the game's framerate from 15 to 60fps. (60fps is recommended.)
  Although this game is fundamentally designed for seamless gameplay at a framerate of 60fps,
  please lower the framerate should performance suffer.
  *For an idea of the framerate setting right for your PC, please refer to the "Configuration Tool FPS Setup Example" section located toward the latter half of this manual.
