Intro

DXWnd hooks into the game's DirectX renderer and force it to windowed mode, which can be moved and resized.

Step by Step

Download the latest version of DXWnd, unpack it: https://sourceforge.net/projects/dxwnd/files/Latest%20build/
Run DXWnd - it will be a small application window.
From Steam, locate the game's installation folder by right clicking on the game from the library, under manage >Browse local files.
Drag and drop the PuzzleStation.exe into the DXWnd window. This will bring up the options screen.
Recommended settings configuration:
- Main tab: keep all default settings. Additionally select "Fullscreen only", "Terminate on window close", "Keep aspect ratio"
- Video tab: keep all default settings. Additionally select Window Style: Default, "No DWM", Window size & postion: Free
- Click OK to apply the settings.
Now, just run the game by double-clicking the PuzzleStation Icon from within DXWnd. It will open up in a window that can be moved and resized.

How the fuck do I even play the game with any controls? None of my keys beyond CRL do anything at all other than browse up and down. How the fuck do I begin a game
