Took me about 2 mins to purchase from Epic Store. That really sucks, hope you can get it soon!

Just few notes on the GFX settings:
If you dont enjoy chromatic aberration (CA) which makes the edges of the screen look very blurred and messed up, you need to set the screen effects to medium.

Or, to control the CA (and other hidden options) directly:
Open engine.ini - (its in appdata/local/indiana/Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor)

Create this:

[SystemSettings]
r.MaxAnisotropy=8 - controls the Anisotropy, useful if you cant set the Textures to Ultra because of VRAM (game texture settings change aniso)

r.SceneColorFringeQuality=0 - this disables the CA
r.Tonemapper.Sharpen=1.5 - this controls sharpening. Game uses TAA antialiasing and is a bit too much blurry, here u can control it

[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.DepthOfFieldQuality=0 - if you want to disable depth of field



in the game.ini

[/Script/MoviePlayer.MoviePlayerSettings]
bWaitForMoviesToComplete=False
bMoviesAreSkippable=True
StartupMovies=

to disable those intro adverts


input.ini
[Engine.PlayerInput]
bEnableMouseSmoothing=false
bViewAccelerationEnabled=false

to disable mouse acceleration and smoothing.

Hope it helps, enjoy

Thanks for the ini tweaks, KoW.

A note that the location for my ini tweaks was slightly different using Xbox Gamepass to download/play the game.

I recently stumbled across this and it looks good, but that release fumble - I think Epic has been throwing money at developers to get them into temporary exclusive deals to use the Epic (Fail) Games Store, otherwise I can't think of an explanation for some of the release schedules I've seen around the internet.

Yes they pay them for exclusivity. And they give them more money than Steam. Plus after the exclusivity ends, they can release on Steam and get another pile of money. Im personally very glad the Steam monopoly is being reduced by Epic.

Anyway, Ive made a pack of my INI settings if someone want to mess with it/use as inspiration
