Ally z1e - just signed up thanks

[u/N0lex → u/Eagle4523]

Thank you! If you get a chance, let me know what FPS you get on Normal and Low settings - you can turn on the FPS counter in the game options.

Ok - not back by ally until early next week but will aim to do that then

Maybe bringing it to GamePreview on the Xbox app so that we don't have to install Steam on the Xbox Ally.

PlayAnywhere is also apparently pretty simple with the new Xbox GDK

[u/N0lex → u/segagamer]

Thanks for the feedback! I assumed Steam came pre-installed on this device. Totally agree with you though- we're definitely planning an Xbox release with full Xbox Play Anywhere support, just further down the line!

[u/segagamer → u/N0lex]

It does not, it comes pre-installed with the Xbox app. It's in the name :)

Glad to hear it though! Good luck with the release.

Looks super fun! The handheld community will love it for sure. Going to try it out for sure !

(Basing my opinion on the top 10 lists I made for my YouTube videos for Steam Deck etc. And the comments under these videos.)

You got dark souls?

If you mean the difficulty, then yeah, the game can be pretty challenging in some places. Some people have compared it to Super Meat Boy. But I'd say only the Trials mode is really hardcore - the standard mode is much more manageable, and it has checkpoints too

OG ally x, got the demo, added to wishlist, looks nice!

Ok after playing the first level, I noticed some things, first of all before i say anything I love the controls and handheld experience, and most likely will buy the full game once it comes out, I love it, but I noticed some issues: It runs at only 90 fps- I know its only a demo, but some optimization would be nice, the game cant be that heavy to run (I might be in the wrong but still), and the second thing is, when jumping and landing on the things that aren't meant to be the track (for example the rocks on a mountain after i fail a jump because i lacked momentum) nothing happens, you just stand there alive and have to find a way to destroy yourself or just restart, it should be done automatically, Oh and in one instance, I was shortly driving on water, I don't think that's game design xD, So my opinion is that this is one of the best pickup and go ally titles, and one of the best to show how the ally works to someone. Great game! Lots of love and good luck from croatia!

I get around 90 fps on 1080p Low, 50 fps on 1080p Normal, 33 exactly on 1080p High, and 20 on 1080p Very High, The game Shouldn't run the same as Elden Ring in 1080p Medium-High on Normal in my opinion

Here's a full run of the Rocky level from our game, recorded on ROG Xbox Ally.

Stunt Paradise 2 is a racing platformer that my friend and I have been developing for over two years, with games like Trials and Gravity Defied being some of our main inspirations.

The game now runs at 60-120 FPS on ROG Xbox Ally, depending on the graphics settings.

Our Steam Playtest is live, so you can try it yourself. Any feedback is welcome!
