25fps isn't too bad.When ACTION meets RACING, thrill moves to another level !!Īre you ready with your Gears and Guns? We need you for your unique skill of driving and shooting.Įntire country is under threat as terrorists have implanted bombs in different cities throughout the country. It did at one stage, but it caused slowdown. It's also the reason the boss level doesn't feature lights along the walls. Usually, the cheese rotates, shrinks and fall away when it's collected - that had to go to keep the frame-rate up. That's why the dragonfly stage doesn't feature an animation when you collect a cheese. I did manage it (look at the Treetop pic up there and you'll notice the reduced colour if you look hard enough), but additional audio and imagery right near the end took it up to 31.2MB.īut it isn't just the size of the game - trying to get the game to run at 60fps took a lot of tweaking. So I squeezed and squeezed, going through up to four versions of some images, in an attempt to get it under 20MB.
But I realised it was going to be too big to download. It used beautiful uncompressed photographic images and plenty of audio. 7) Optimisation is a BIG dealĪt one point early on, the game was 80MB. So I took out two of the songs and left in 'Pirate Queen', resulting in a 12+.
Plus there's a spider in one of the levels that is more than a little scary, if that sort of thing bothers you. 'Pirate Queen' has a reference to alcohol, 'Hot On Your Tail' has mild innuendo and 'Feeling Before' contains the line 'I called the nurse / she made it worse / she raised my temperature / and halfway through I had to ask.' which is pretty suggestive. Why? The radio in the kitchen was originally programmed to play one of three random songs by yours truly. But when I came to thinking about what was actually in it when submitting for the age rating, I realised it was going to have 'suggestive themes' 'alcohol or drugs reference' and 'mild fear/horror'. On the surface, Squeak's Dreams looks like the most harmless game in the world.
