You can set custom display resolution for the game.

TL;DR

Path:

%APPDATA%\..\Local\DungeonCrawler\Saved\Config\Windows\GameUserSettings.ini

Settings to change:

ResolutionSizeX=2560
ResolutionSizeY=1280
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeX=2560
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeY=1280

Adjust to fit your aspect ratio:

DesiredScreenWidth=1280
DesiredScreenHeight=640
LastUserConfirmedDesiredScreenWidth=1280
LastUserConfirmedDesiredScreenHeight=640

Introduction

I prefer to use 2:1 aspect ratio to record my content. So I decided to dig a bit a see if I can change the display resolution to a custom one. Credits to developers this was easy to find and change.

Instructions

Make sure you have a non-destructive text editing app installed.
*Something like: VSCode, Atom or Notepad++

Open file explorer and put this into path input:

%APPDATA%\..\Local\DungeonCrawler\Saved\Config\Windows\

Copy GameUserSettings.ini to any dir on your computer for backup purposes.

Open the original file using your text editor.

Set your preferred resolution by changing the following values:

ResolutionSizeX=2560
ResolutionSizeY=1280
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeX=2560
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeY=1280

Now, if your new resolution does not match the aspect ratio you were using change these settings accordingly:

DesiredScreenWidth=1280
DesiredScreenHeight=640
LastUserConfirmedDesiredScreenWidth=1280
LastUserConfirmedDesiredScreenHeight=640

Explanation

I changed ResolutionSizeY & LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeY from 1440 to 1280.
So, I had to change DesiredScreenHeight & LastUserConfirmedDesiredScreenHeight from 720 to 640 to match the 2:1 aspect ratio.

Without these changes, the game was overwriting my 1280 value.
