Hi guys how are you? so my PC has the requirements to play the game, but the game is slow ...

Try changing the game's resolution, i do that to every game that Is slow in my PC

I did it but it didn't work, thanks anyway!

Not sure if this is related, but I noticed the game only runs at a constant 50 fps on my PC. Since 60+ is the default for most games, I was wondering if this is intended.
(my monitor refresh rate is set to 75 Hz, so that can't be the reason for the slightly low framerate)

Most of the I Wanna games runs on 50 fps i think.

Absolutely intended, the entire I Wanna community's games are based around 50 frames and The Kid moving horizontally at precisely three pixels per frame so it's likely the same in this.

Thanks, that's good to know! I played the original I Wanna Be the Guy, but somehow I couldn't get Fraps or Steam overlay to display its framerate, so I wasn't sure.

About ̶M̶a̶u̶'s slowdown problem: Is your framerate constantly at half your monitor's refresh rate? In case you don't know how to check: You can make Steam display the framerate by enabling the FPS counter in Settings -> In-Game. And you can check your monitor's refresh rate in your Windows settings (or whichever OS you're using).
Anyway, this game looks like it's made in Gamemaker Studio (I saw someone post an error message that looks like it), and I learned yesterday that it can happen that your framerate drops to half your refresh rate in some cases. So I was wondering if this might be the issue here. Apparently, this can be avoided by setting a "sleep margin" parameter to 10:

(I'm not an expert at all at the topic, just posting this since it might be relevant)

Well, I just noticed the thread I linked doesn't mention refresh rate at all, but I know a Gamemaker game where it can drop to half my refresh rate (37.5 fps, exactly half of 75 Hz), and stay there constantly. Also, the thread that I linked is a bit older, so I don't know if it is still relevant.
Sooo ... take what I posted with a grain of salt, but I hope it still helps somehow.

Guys I decided to download the game again to test what you advised me, but now it's running normally without me doing anything. anyway thanks for the tips! ♥

The game updated a few hours ago. Maybe the devs managed to fix your problem? Anyway, I'm glad it works now for you. :)

it must have been the same update, thank you we're together ♥
