Adjust Graphics settings?
I have a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ allinone, and the game lags when too much happens onscreen. Is there a mod to make the game run well on a low end PC?

even my bloated laptop that cant run any modern game can run this absolutely fine, is your pc from 90s or what?

you can adjust some setings in a file in the game i don't recommend you to disable all of them, just disable the ones that are causing slowdown

Speed issues, unstable framerate
For some players the game is running either too fast or too slow, on systems where performance is not the issue. If you are experiencing this, try disabling VSync by changing "VSync=1" to "VSync=0" in the Options.ini file, which is located in your save data folder. Look at the top of this page for instructions on how to locate the save data folder on your PC.

Performance issues, or shader problems
In case you are suffering from speed issues because of slow graphics hardware, or if some shaders don't work for you, you can disable certain effects.
Locate the resources folder by right clicking on the game in your Steam client, then selecting Properties, Local Files, Browse Local Files. Double click on the resources folder.
On Mac you have to right-click on the app bundle, select "View Package Contents", go into Contents/Resources/resources, then create the file there.
Create a new file called "config.ini" with the following content.
[Options] EnableColorCorrection=0 EnableCaustics=0 EnableShockwave=0 EnableLighting=0 EnableFilter=0 EnablePixelation=0 EnableBloom=0 EnableWaterSurface=0 EnableInterpolation=0
This will disable most special effects. If you only want to disable certain effects, you can do so by replacing 0 by 1 for some options. I would recommend leaving the EnableLighting option on because it adds a lot to the game's atmosphere.

For some weak graphics cards, the fill rate might be a problem. Open the options.ini file in your save data folder with a text editor. Look at the top of this page for instructions on how to locate the save data folder on your PC. Look for a line saying "MaxRenderScale=2" and change that to "MaxRenderScale=1".
This will make the scrolling more choppy and add some artifacts to scaled sprites, so you might want to change it back in case your experience isn't improved by it.
