Best version

The version on Steam is the 'best' version. It includes achievements, cloud saving and additional updates which allow for running a game in window mode and custom resolutions. Developer is also planning on updating this version of the game further.[1]

Custom Resolution

Postal runs natively in 640x480 resolution and there is no option in a menu to change resolution. However, it's possible to enable upscaling in the Steam version[2] to any resolution desired. Unfortunately, game only allows for 4:3 resolutions and it's going to use letterbox for widescreen resolutions. Developer is planning on making a patch to allow playing in widescreen resolutions.

Instructions

Windowed

It's possible to run either Mac or Linux versions of the game in Window mode. Also Steam version allows to run a game in Window Mode. To run it in Window mode, either press ALT+ENTER or add --windowed to launch parameters.[3]
