Comment (by antoniou79):

 Testing today with master HEAD (2.10.0git) I think the framerate is ok /
 great now. I think it feels even more responsive than DOSBox.

 The navigation issue persists, though. It feels significantly different
 when playing eg. the Steam version (that uses DOSBox). Testing today, in
 first level (shooting at spaceships, damp difficulty), simply moving the
 mouse towards left or right edge has noticeable impact in my ship's
 movement/viewport with DOSBox. Note: In this level, moving the mouse up
 and down does not seem to affect movement by much (or at all?).

 On ScummVM, even in fullscreen ScummVM mode, the movement is barely
 noticeable and I'm still not sure how it's triggered (does the mouse have
 to go back and forth repetitively towards an edge? is there a hot zone
 that needs to be "crossed" for this to work?). As a result of this, I keep
 getting enemy spaceships hidden behind one of the viewport window "bars"
 quite often, without a way to maneuver to get a clear shot.

 Of course there's the possibility I'm doing something wrong with the
 controls, or maybe the DOSBox (Steam version) setup uses some
 configuration that significantly enhances mouse sensitivity.

 If you think that this is not actually an issue, the ticket can be closed.

 I have an extra question though. When launching the game as is from Steam,
 I get a different logo video for Hypnotix, than when I launch the game
 from ScummVM (using the folders from the ISO image that Steam installation
 has, as specified by our wiki). Is this known? Do you know why  it uses a
 different video there?
