Well, i wouldn't bother going to high-res for 2d stuff, done with images. Playing a 2D games at that resolution means, that that will be the resolution for all the graphics, as there's no point in really scaling the images and stuff upwards. Draw back to that is of course, downscaling the images. Downscaling using blitz scaleimage command gives pretty poor results i think, and it's pretty slow.

I would really maybe choose 2 different resolutions. My 2 cents anyway :o) And good luck!
