Optimisation Breakthrough


Hey Folks!

After chopping down a lot of the levels, I’ve proceeded to merge some of the backgrounds that are taking up uneeded space, along with removing old buttons and now Narcissus runs so fast that it’s a struggle to complete the insane speed levels anymore! This is a massive breakthrough as now I can focus on other tweaks such as enhancing the timer, refining the later levels & figuring out what that mysterious grey box in the corner is all about!
