Correct! Vector graphics are 'the girl's iris' of quality games, but they are...a bit hungry for resources :/ Adobe is STILL promising about Flash being MULTITHREADED or TRULY accelerated by GPU.

We could make it even faster if we were to convert it to C# using unity, which would even allow us to run it on mobile devices, but this would cost money for the plugin needed to use vector graphics and everything except the vector graphics would have to be remade
Thats it! Thats why the idea is great, BUT I prefer to go to the 'AS3 mountain' first, then create classes for it, then finish the game, then think about it in the future, who knows
Patreon is on the plans, I just havent created one because I am so full of duties that I prefer to focus in the game when I am free. For sure I would love to do wonders with a better game engine, people will be even more satisfied.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhh, THAT THING! You can ignore it. It would be a place for a new level, thats all.
When you finish 1-6, a toad should appear telling you that the airship IS IN PEACH'S CASTLE! So you have to beat it to progress!

So I guess with the specs I have, I can't run it correctly. I guess I have to count on AS3 and if that doesn't work out...I guess I just gotta get a new computer.
You can use Flash Player, then play with the quality settings. You dont need to rush with the FRAMESKIP. I dont like it as well hehe, but its there for people who prefer it (and I know many who prefer to set it to, say, 22!).
So you can try QUALITY: MEDIUM ou LOW. Then you can try changing your entire screen resolution (say, FULL HD to HD, or 1333x764, or even less, or 1024x758), then you can open up Flash Player AND you can RESIZE the window. The smaller the window, the faster the game.
As for people who are sending me PMs, I am sorry, I promiss I'll find time to answer them.
