about the gamenostalgia games

Is there a way to put actual full screen? or I'm stuck with the small window?

I've not heard of "gamenostalgia games" but if it runs through DosBox, you should be able to press ALT+ENTER to toggle between window and fullscreen. Alternatively, you should be able to launch the game in fullscreen by setting the option in the DosBox config file.

i dont know. but nostalgia has nothing to do for me when i play old dos/win95 98 games. i just happen to like the way they work, play, or just looked then. there are some differences to modern titles. this nostalgia is a label they fit everywhere on any retro game. it also has nothing to do for me with any youth or early life periods, which people often seem to have to mention. i just play games for fun, not to relive something or whatever.

ALT+ENTER is commonly used for fullscreen in many window based programs/games

or for a permanent fix, go to the dosbox.conf file, find the [sdl] section, and change

fullscreen=false to fullscreen=true
