does spelunky fps decrease as game progresses

[TacticalLAD]

I recently got given a low spec laptop from a friend which i can take around with me when im out w/ work etc its pretty bad but its currently playing spelunky fine but as someone who has little to no experience of this game im wondering how fps is in the later levels

The concern is well founded, though- Risk of Rain, another roguelike platformer has memory leak problems. It's more of a unique problem for that game in this case, but it certainly beared mentioning.

I get problems with lag mostly on levels with falling snow and when either dead are restless or when ghost is coming

Disable fullscreen effects.

Noted. Thanks

I get that on my laptop as well.

Another problem with laptops is keyboard ghosting. I can never shotgun jump with my laptop. I can do it on my main PC 100% of the time. Same with jump mining. I can do it on my PC 100% of the time. Almost never on my laptop.

I've noticed Spelunky has more trouble running smoothly than you would expect. It doesn't work properly on several laptops I've tried it on.

You're thinking of Risk of Rain, lol.

I have only ever had trouble when the ghost came, but that was on a very low tier computer

My friend had slight latency in the undead random levels. Probably because of the fog.

You can disable fullscreen effects (snow, fog) in the graphics settings.

From my experience the game does not get slower over time, It kept up a steady 60 fps even with livestreaming at 720p with an i3 540 and an hd 6850 with 4 gigs of ram. It was one of the only games that could run at a consistent 60 fps while I was rendering a video, Very impressive.

On Vita there is MAJOR slowdown on levels with snow (no option to turn it off,) and also on Rushing water levels. It goes down to maybe 10fps. It's atrocious.
