Reasons for low FPS?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I’m experiencing some real slow frame rate on my endless runner :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m not sure why, but it runs really slow on the device compared to the corona… probably 1/2 the speed I’m expecting.

My game is pretty simple so far, just my character, 2 platforms that are moved around using translate.

and 3 background images set up for paralax.

at a loss… too much code to post here, but I’ll provide it to anyone that wants to check it out.
thanks in advance. [import]uid: 157863 topic_id: 31394 reply_id: 331394[/import]

also, the device is an ipod touch 4th gen, and I’ve tested on iphone4s
been a few days since I’ve had the iphone available to me though. [import]uid: 157863 topic_id: 31394 reply_id: 125477[/import]

When you paralex objects, it’s very taxing on the processor for the iPhone and Android. I would also make sure in your config.lua it is set to fps=60. That may fix your issue.
