No, there is no crypto miner

[No;Hurry]

Will clarify first that I do have a background with working in Unity professionally and use .NET decompilers on a regular basis for my hobby projects.

For those who do not trust it, the source is unobfuscated so you can inspect it in any assembly browser for .NET (also dev, I absolutely love this so please keep it this way! Gives potential for modding the game). For those who are extra paranoid, you can go over all assemblies and compare the SHA256 hash with an original provided by Unity or the unity asset he uses.

While the code quality itself leaves a bit to be desired (please index your GetComponent() values, makes the game much faster and lightweight!), there sure as hell ain't a crypto miner in it.

As for unity defaults, while I don't know what the dev's render pipeline asset looks like, I am very certainit can be optimized, and you can modify these settings on runtime. So yes, a whole lot of options can be modified but unlike unity's QualitySettings you have to write this yourself.

Thank you! Allow me to pin your topic as "user confirmation"! <3

No problem, glad to help!

Thanks Senko-san for this detailed explanation for those of us without technical knowledge!

Then why is it using 50% of my CPU? I can barely run the game in comparison to other games. I have an Intel i5 so I should be able to run it fine in theory.

You know, alot of this bs could be contributed to individuals that do not upkeep their systems properly. As a former computer repair tech, I can tell you generally speaking that people run their systems into the ground and do not maintenance or focus on PC efficiency.

I have been running this application on a 10 year old laptop and prior to the fixes, was never getting as much CPU usage as many have claimed. After fixes, it's negligent on my system. I can run several applications while running this one and have a browser up with 10+ tabs.

Perhaps look into your systems folks. Stop blaming devs for your poor PC optimization.

AMD Ryzen 2700x
RTX 2080 8gb
16 gb RAM

Windows 11 + Chill Corner are using:
CPU 7%
GPU 37%
RAM 4.1 GB

Don't forget that browser, YouTube, other apps also use your PC resources.
And don't use any tune up apps, driver updating software.
They will intentionally slow down your PC and then pop up some fake measurements of your PC "poor performance" to make you wanna buy premium version of their software.
Windows cleans itself, it doesn't need any maintenance on user's side. Drivers also should only be downloaded from the developers official website.
I use my PC since I built it in early 2019. Never used any cleaners or speeding apps. PC runs perfectly, quickly, nothing changed since the beginning in it's performance.

i can run this thing while downloading a big game in the background with ease, i dont see whats up with the whole bitcoinminer stuff

[Low-Hi Dev]

A lot of negative reviews said "bitcoin miner" is still increasing.

Sorry, but I installed Chill Corner and it caused CPU problems and my computer to routinely reset itself. I uninstalled it and the problems stopped.

how did you identify the problem was CPU?

funny things there is no one can prove this game was actually Bit Coin Miner.

This is a huge problem with Steam as most of us using this platform probably already know. Reviews can essentially bomb a game. Positive reviews, like mine, are not being liked or read. My review never popped up as a Recent Review. I feel Steam is to blame. Much like social media, accounts that spread misinformation should be reprimanded.

If small, indie devs start to lose income over misinformation, Id say there is a lawsuit on your hands against Steam. It would certainly make top news.

EDIT: I am starting to report all negative reviews that mention "crypto miner" with this message to Steam:

"Spreading misinformation about a game without any knowledge or backing up evidence."

Thank you for this!

This game take 3x% of my GPU usage, and people doubt about it with some reasons. Though the reason of bitcoin miner may not be valid, this shows that no one think this game should spend so many resources.
