I've just figured out how to make my game use a TON less resources. I've now uploaded a new release with these changes.

I have no idea how well it can run on regular computers now, but here's how I did it:

(I apologise for the cringey meme)


  1. I've set the game to "Mobile" mode, which is optimised for portable devices, I guess

  2. I capped the framerate at 60fps. This should help a bit with using less resources.

  3. Straight-up deleted the lighting. I mean c'mon, you couldn't even see the lighting. All it was doing was eating up processing power. So I've cut it out of the equation, and that's fixed the lag spikes the game can have.

  4. Activated low processor mode. This means the game will stop updating frames when absolutely nothing is happening. Which allows it to use less resources.

Soooo if you want you can test out the newest release and see if your device has an easier time running the game.

tinyBuild (@tinyBuild-NeighborGames ) partnered with KOBO to work on a new "modding tool". It's unknown what they are making but we will probably get more info soon.

Today I was setting up the location of the first boss. His name is "Father" and he is the first of the Patagonians. His task is to guard the road to the House.🛡🗡 Bookmark pre-launch page🔖🔖🔖

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Sometimes the suction cup get sticky. Small animation I made in Blender after doing my tutorial on picking up/dropping objects in animations. Crate model by jQueary (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/game-ready-sci-fi-crate-d98deca6…).

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.
