why is it so demanding on my potato pc?

(+1)

I guess the potato part probably explains a lot of it x3 The PC that I make my projects on is ooooooold, but it manages to run Unity and the finished games just fine. I have a laptop as well though, and that's just completely screwed x3 The stupid thing is, way back when I bought it, I got it specifically to play VNs, and in the beginning, it was totally fine! If I try and play a VN on it now though, it will lag like crazy the moment the game boots up, if there's an opening vid, it will have a heart attack, and half the time it will just crash >.< It's basically useless T_T

Honestly though, I don't know the best way to optimise my games because I'm not a coder x3 I do make sure to use things like tinypng to shrink all the art assets that go into it, and I do use commands to destroy and unload stuff when it's no longer present on the screen. I'm sure there must be more I can do to help ease the burden on a system, but I just don't have the knowledge >.<
