Come and Test Katakijin

Posted by ultim8p00 on Jan. 27, 2008, 7 p.m.

So I've been hard at work (lies) trying to figure out a way to optimize Katakijin so those with slow computers can enjoy its awesomeness.

Here are some of the things I've done:

-Added views. I guess this is a big deal as views reduces lag considerably. I am currently experimenting with stopping all draw events once an object is out of view (not helping so far).

-Some code optimization here and there. Like using repeat instead of loops in some cases…stuff like that.

-Reduced background effects. Well…more like re-optimized them for views really.

-Removed a few redundant pieces of code and fixed the loading bug.

Of course, I can't tell if these are successful or not because the game had no problems running on my PC.

So basically what I need you guys to do is test the game, post your PC specs and whether or not the game ran smoothly for you.

I will especially like the people who were experiencing lag to try this out.

serprex hope you didn't play from inside the zip file.

I hate this game so much I can't stop playing it.

Ah, the mandatory question that must be asked but that shouldn't have to be

Yes, I always take games out of their archive

@ seprex: yeah, that's pretty much standard procedure

I rarely get them out of the zip file. Only when I get an error. Works fine with me. It ran ok on my computer but I don't have a real good one. Just average.

Is the cloning thing fixed?

@ Distortion: Good. The slower the game runs, the more chances you get of running into clonning.
