Hey! I know it's been a while, but the latest update might improve your experience. The Insane mode now allows for up to 16 pages to be swapped simultaneously, which makes that difficulty level more playable again. Swap latency can also be disabled in the Custom difficulty level.

Glad to know it's working! Hope you enjoy the game! :-)

Could you try another game made with Pygame to see if it works? Here's one: https://g-bloxy.itch.io/minesweeper

Hello! That's certainly weird. If I may ask, what browser and what version of that browser are you using?

Hello! Thank you for your comment! :)

I do accept pull requests, however when it comes to implementing a leaderboard, I see two major problems: 1) hosting fees and 2) security, as in it would be very difficult to prevent people from submitting fake scores to the backend.

"however in most of cases, process can be unblocked by I/O event bar"

You have to wait for the I/O event to be available in order to be able to unblock the process, which can take several seconds. This is why in the meantime it's better to let another process use that CPU time instead. Trust me, I made the game ;)

Now obviously, yes, if the event is already available by the time you notice the blocked process, then it makes more sense to just unblock it.

And no, removing the process from the CPU does not mean that you're going to let it get killed, it just means that you're gonna put it back on a CPU once it's unblocked.

Hello,

A process that is blocked does not, in fact, process. This is why it is said to be "blocked". It is therefore wasting CPU time as in, another process could be using that CPU  instead and making progress while the blocked process is not. This is a thing that actual OS's do.
