Is the resolution set to the maximum on the game?

From a review of the game :

The graphics themselves are almost the game's best point. At a higher resolution, they would be beautiful - the incredibly lifelike animations and detailed backdrops are pretty marvelous. Unfortunately, the low resolution keeps things a little blocky, which puts a damper on the obvious care put into the art. Said low resolution is the only clue that the game has been in development as long as it has (anywhere from five to seven years according to various sources); the game itself is quite short. The sound is always appropriate, and the music, sparse as it may be, is a dramatic score performed by the London Philharmonic Symphony.

Sounds like the graphics resolution is limited.

Some games hold the resolution in config files that can be changed in Notepad, the most common file types are .INF files, so if you look in the games' folder you may find some of these files and one of them could hold the information for the resolution. Remember to always keep a backup copy of any file that you edit.
