- Massive performance issue. My playtesting on an Intel integrated graphics and nVidia GTX 1080Ti separately can only get 4 FPS at the beginning, and improves only with every enemy killed. Tested on the big three (Chrome/Firefox/Edge) with no difference. Fullscreen toggle did not mitigate "startup weirdness". Somewhere in the game logic for the enemy nodes is eating an incredible amount of performance. This leads to controller and keyboard input being ignored most of the time and necessitates excessive button mashing to progress in the game at all. Resulting in targeting enemies very difficult due to it being based on the player’s last movement's angle. Was unable to change form after when they were acquired, unsure if this was part of the performance bug aforementioned or not. Render order of the walls and floor was off, showing floors that should be obscured by walls in most areas. GDD was well defined and laid out the gameplay loop expectation and mechanics intended. Appreciated having controller support in addition to keyboard controls.
