Any good explanation for why it maxes out my CPU, even when it's just displaying the end-of-level score screen? This game works fine on a smartphone, but somehow makes use of everything my MacBook Pro can throw at it?
- jbermudes 15y agoIIRC, the game on the smartphone was running via a native C++ binary, so it's pretty close to the metal. In a web browser you have layers of abstractions that kill performance. It's a sad day when we herald slow and buggy modern implementations of game technology that was working just fine in 1985 as the future just because now you don't have to install a program.
