Hey again!

I had some fun this weekend benchmarking and optimizing the game. No new content yet, but I hope you appreciate it still!

Android Play Store

Apple App Store

Update 1.8.2

  • Vastly improved performance for terrain rendering, zoom/panning, minigames and UI. The terrain now keeps up even at 1000 km/h (hey, I get to brag sometimes!)
  • Improved loading times
  • Now up to 90 fps rendering (if your phone supports it) without additional battery drain
  • Made the insect minigame slightly easier
  • A lot of bugfixes

Have fun 💚

    I was having trouble running the game on my ancient phone, but kept it installed because I was hoping for exactly this. Excited to try it out again!

      After a night’s sleep I realized I upped the GPU usage quite a bit with this patch. So now patch 1.8.3 is out, it should run even better on your phone 💚

      Let me know how it runs, I made some tradeoffs for better visuals.

      So I could easily add a performance mode that looks slightly worse (you probably won’t notice) but uses a lot less GPU :)
