Been annoyed by this little drop down from chrome as it always seems to get in the way of what I'm trying to do. I've dealt with it in the other games but decided to do a little searching on it. Not sure if this is well known here, if so just disregard this.
If you want to get rid of this, make a new shortcut to chrome on your desktop. Right click it and select properties. In the Target line, you want it to look something like this but with the location of your chrome install. EG: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --kiosk http://account.spacetimestudios.com/arcanelegends/
This will open chrome directly to Arcane Legends in fullscreen mode without that little annoying Exit Fullscreen dropdown. To exit this, you'll need to close it out completely with ALT F4 hotkey. If you want you can change the icon via properties > change icon button and choose your icon. I converted the Arcane Legends png to an ico that is usable for this purpose and uploaded it here: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?n1i5yfb27w02ee9 . And with that it fits in nicely with your other game shortcuts on the desktop.
One thing, if you already have chrome open to a webpage or something, the command line switch seems to be ignored and will simply open in a tab in your already existing chrome. Not sure how to get around this as it seems chrome ignores the kiosk mode switch if other switches are also present. At least it seems that way to me with a cursory examination.
Anyways, if well known disregard but since it's been annoying me, I figured I'd mention it.
