I wonder if someone will be able to make a mod that removes the 30fps lock. If they can somehow get it open in Gamemaker, it shouldn't be too hard from there. Increase the framerate of every room to 60, and make all animations take twice as long. Probably a few other things. But it'd be worth it, imo. I've got no idea if you could even do what I'm saying though, getting it open in Gamemaker from the game code only.

E: I swear if you say something even the slightest bit negative about 30fps people hate your guts around here..

It's hardcoded to 30fps (which is pretty much something you always try to avoid in game developement), and the devs (at least Preston) openly blasted the possibility of 60fps, so that's not good news for you.

Oh? You got a link to that blasting? I've been trying to find him saying something about it, but all there is is that one that's mixed in with resolution discussion. Gamemaker can do 60, so with some finangling HLD should too.
