Streets of Rogue is another Unity title that's broken with fullscreen, here's a quick fix
14 Jul 2017 at 11:38 pm UTC

Quoting: TakIt's fixed in 5.6.2p3, a 5.6.2f1 hotfix build [External Link], and 2017.1.
Is it possible for users to patch their games with that hotfix, or does it require the devs to update?

Quoting: STiATYea, seems to happen with Kingdom Come: Deliverance as well. First they wanted to support linux, but I guess they saw issues and backed away.
Similar issue, different engine - they are using CryEngine.

Quoting: scaineI'm really enjoying Quern at the moment. It's a walking-sim-with-puzzles, in the style of The Room (a little - mostly I mean in the way you interact with objects). Lots of fun, if a bit frustrating at times.
I found the map design of Quern to be excellent - lots of gameplay in a relatively small space.

OpenLara, an impressive open source engine for classic Tomb Raider has a WebGL demo
24 Apr 2017 at 11:58 pm UTC

WebGL 1.0 is based on OpenGL ES 2.0, which uses shaders rather than a fixed-function pipeline:

So I don't think OpenGL 2.1 is sufficient, no. In your browser, go the URL about:support, and see what the Graphics section says about WebGL.
