tetraaugen's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Touhou Fangame - Unexplained Crisis]

I'm pretty bad at bullet hell games, but this game's generally fun. My biggest issue is the lag spikes it gives me (not just a little frame drop, lag SPIKES with an S) with too many enemies and their bullets onscreen (bosses aren't much of a problem). I got a little lag spike in stage 3, one in stage 4, and a bunch in stage 5. My computer isn't a potato, so my issue shouldn't be my computer. Is this fixable?

Other small things: there's just a few misspellings, a possible bug with one of the bullet patterns for Vivit in stage 4, and I'm worried stage 4's and maybe stage 5's backgrounds might be a little distracting for me to dodge the bullets. Overall, solid game (without the lag spikes)!

(For the record, I have no problem moving up or down in focus mode. I'm using firefox)

Hey! Thank you so much for checking out my game and enjoying it!

My apologies for any lag or just bad things that happens here, I haven't properly make people with a wide range of devices with different powers testing it (Mine is a windows 10 upgraded to 11 laptop) maybe next time i'll try to consider optimising the game I will be making more..
I have no possible solution for fixing the lag, but it'll be great once someone finds a way, lol

And about the Vivit thing, I didn't properly plan out one of her attacks so I just lazily cobined two of them and it constantly turns into point items, whoops.

Also, if you are using firefox, does the game seem to run in 20fps? I know it's a problem for scratch/turbowarp sometimes
