I am experiencing the same issue. My performance is not quite single digits, but it gets in the 20s and sometimes even 10s, and i can run large 3d games at 150 - 200. Its strange and i dont think this is an issue on our side. The only thing i could think to say is play in fullscreen not windowed as that will give you the best performance.

am playing in fullscreen, I've turned off all the things that could lead to lag.
I am averaging around 3 fps ingame.
My (shitty) hypothesis is that it's because of the language the game runs on, either that or it is something bloating performance.

i reckon its just poorly optimised

Hi! Are you running on a Mac? M1/M2 has terrible performance right now because it's emulating x86_64. This will be fixed eventually with an official JPackage ARM release: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8310589 (and if not ready in time, I'll have to find a way to build Aarch64 binaries)

I don't have an M1/M2 to test with yet but I've heard running the desktop jar directly using an Aarch64 JVM can increase performance up to 10x. Some peeps on our Discord are exploring a solution.

I'm not happy with the performance yet, there's a lot more to do in future releases, but am generally trying to avoid premature optimisation. I expect to get performance up by 1-3 orders of magnitude before EA (this is still an Alpha!). Please watch this space, performance is important to me!!

no im on windows 11 and i have a good laptop

Thank you for sharing! Can you share any other details about your PC? userbenchmark.com is pretty good to benchmark and find out.

i have an i5 12500H with a 3050 mobile and 8 gb ram. The laptop is an acer nitro 5 that is like 1 year 6 months old. My laptop isnt top of the line, but its pretty good compared a lot of other pcs people would run random itch.io games on. It has a gaming score of 86.9% on userbenchmark and 60% 3d score. I never run into issues with performance in other games and am able to run rocket league for example at 200 - 300 fps while using about 60% of my gpu due to power saving settings and whatnot that i cant be bothered changing. This is the test also https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/66765969

its probably less that that old actually

This is super helpful. Thank you! You shouldn't be having issues. Are you able to join the Discord and/or share the results of the debug screen (press F8 in-game)?

I'm working on something right now that should hopefully increase graphics performance a ton.

sure ill do that now my discord user is Znakezzz so watch out for a message from me

Hi! Are you running on a Mac? Please see my earlier post about M1/M2 performance!

Windows 10.

Thank you for sharing! It sounds like that's an integrated graphics card? Adaptory doesn't play well on integrated graphics yet (see the readme.txt), but will be in the future.
