The game engine may allow for manual configuration of the game via its variables. See the Unity page for more details.

Custom resolution

As of version 1.5, resolution cannot be changed in-game.
Resolution should be automatically determined; however, users have reported resolution issues since this update.[5][6]
Set a custom resolution argument[4]

Use the following command line arguments: -screen-width 1920 -screen-height 1080

Replace 1920 and 1080 with the desired width and height.

Notes

Some non-standard aspects (for example, 5760x1080 for three 1080p monitors) can cause HUD scaling issues.[4]
Re-enable the Unity Screen Selector[7]

See the fix on PCGW's Unity Engine article for more details.
