Major FPS Drop and Crash to Desktop

[No' Name]

So, I've picked up Overthrown, as the concept is very interesting to me.

Wanted to play it more, and actually enjoy it, but out of the two games I've started as of now, I've had the same problem persist, at the same exact time.

Everything seems to be running smoothly, but then the transition from Summer, to Fall completely tanks the performance, going from buttery smooth, to major FPS drops, and stuttering.

The first save file I had, I thought maybe it was due to the place I had started to build, but there was literally nothing around me except a minor forest area. No bandit camps, no animal burrows, etc, etc. Then I tried to save the game so I could back out, and reopen the game, and the game crashed.

Alright, so then I figured well, maybe I'll try it again, and see if I can find a way to fix it. Started a new file, again, everything running smoothly, and at that exact same time, transitioning to Fall, from Summer, the exact same thing performance wise happens again. Massive FPS drop, and stuttering. So I started messing around with the very limited graphics/options the game actually has, which only seems to be AA, the ability to swap display, and turning on and off motion blur. So turned off motion Blur, took off the AA period, and swapped my display down to 1080, and absolutely nothing has changed.

It did feel like the Fps, and stuttering did get better the longer than Fall went on, and maybe it was still transitioning, but it was still at a point where it was nearly unplayable (for myself anyways).

This is not a PC related issue, and honestly, it's making me want to refund this game until development is further along.
