Comments: Will run at 60 FPS while your character is facing in certain directions, but will drop to ghastly speeds when facing in others (about 20 FPS and can drop even more). Software mode is quite fast, although. Enabling "Allow 8-bit textures" is a must while playing this game, as it gives a great performance boost when the GPU is the bottleneck.
