It would be nice to have an option to render the test game in the editor window so it doesn't go full screen by default. Something as simple as a preferences option and this as a choice would be really cool. As a media developer I do a lot of testing with just small assets and going full screen every time can be cumbersome. This feature would be useful for testing.

There are these setting in the setup.ini file in the GG root folder or the reloaded folder.

fullscreen=0
width=-1
height=-1

Maybe messing with these will give you the results you need. Not sure if this is just for the editor or just build game. Right now I noticed that if the editor is not full screen, then picking objects for editing is difficult as the mouse wants to sense the object about 8ft away form the intended pick object. So might not be fully implemented yet. But might be worth a try for test game and build game.

A good old (Alt+Enter ) would be nice to swap modes I must admit
