Ah, flash player performance is known to be poor on linux unfortunately, so that’s likely where your slowdown is coming from. Time vs frame based is not straightforward, it depends if you are talking about actually measuring time, or sprite movements based on elapsed time/per frame etc. Anyway, I won’t be overhauling how its done for this game – for most people it plays fine. Cheers.

Hey, thanks for your feeback on GlueFO 2.0. I’ve tried the game on a few different machines and haven’t found it to be very laggy, how old is your computer, what browser do you use? You could try getting the latest flash player if you don’t already have it (faster performance). Counting time by frames would encourage cheating by slowing the game by opening lots of tabs or whatever, not a good idea…

Hi askon, just letting you know that I’ve taken your suggestion for THD Flagship. The player’s ship now has an increased movement and firing rate which it turns out doesn’t break the balance of the game. I still need to make updates to how mini-boss and boss health works but once that’s tweaked it’ll be great. Hope you’ll give it another try now, thanks!
