I have just finished the first version of our "Teardown Game Setup" which is an external options/settings/configuration tweaking tool.

http://www.teardown.se/games/left2die/www/images/screenshots/TGS.jpg

This means you can easily adjust the game before/without starting it. With its simple design it is easy to use, can be localized to any language if wanted. This tool will be used in all future Teardown games and could also be used with other programs/games using the same type of data saving system (plain text file).

The reason why we have created this tool is to easily add/remove settings, a change that otherwise would need adjustments to the actual game's options screen on which we could potentially be limited/restricted due to the menu's visual design.

Hope you enjoy!

Ah. Nice. I suspect I'll get a little annoyed at having to open up a new programme to tweak settings, but if it's there to compensate fo something else, then how can I complain? :D

The program will be auto launched / executed from the game itself. My intention is that it should be as simple as bringing up an ingame option screen.
