really weird bug

[Dreiiora]

i usually watch yt while i play games for some context
so i was watching a playthrough of pizza tower and playing pizza tower at the same time, then i realized that their game was running faster then mine was. I don't mean fps, I mean my game was LITERALLY slower then theirs. All of my animations play at half speed, pizza time takes 2x longer, and the ranking at the end of levels takes a solid 20 seconds to finish. idk why this is happening please help

No, this is FPS lag. The game's speed is tied to the FPS, and there's no frame skipping to counteract it. So the solution to this problem is to figure out how to reduce the lag like you would any other game. Check task manager to see if anything is taking up too much resources while you're playing the game. Try disabling vsync too.

Consequences of GameMaker! I've been recommending this solution a lot, but change your energy settings in your graphics card control panel to max perfomance, it usually does a big change in those games.

also what Colind8 said, I play on borderless without Vsync and the game runs perfectly.

Question, how much did it change? I know it tends to vary person to person.

Thats interesting, what computer or laptop do you have? maybe it could be some driver issues.
