-language X

(where X is one of: english, german, french, italian, spanish, 
portuguese, japanese, korean, tchinese ...right now it's always 
defaulting to English, but a future build will try to make an 
intelligent choice based on environment variables.)

This changes the language the game's text appears in.

-windowed

Makes the game windowed, instead of fullscreen.

-vsync
-no_vsync

Try to force or disable sync to vblank. Prevents tearing, if your video 
card can keep up. If your framerate is bad, tearing might be an 
acceptable tradeoff.

-no_music

Disable music.

-half

Reduce rendering to half...makes game look worse, but could make a big 
performance difference on slower GPUs.

-60fps
-30fps
-20fps
-15fps

Try to keep the framerate at 60/30/20/15 frames per second. Might be 
useful on a slower machine to try to push the system less at a tradeoff 
of less responsiveness and smoothness of animation.

-width X
-height Y

Specify size of window (or fullscreen resolution). -width 1024 -height 
768 will make a 1024x768 window.



...there are a few others, but those should cover what most people care 
about.
