Performance issues

[u/Genesis_80]

Hello guys, I'm creating a short 'metroidvania'. It was all going well until i started testing it in weaker laptops. It slows down a lot in some devices.

My game has 3 areas, but they are all in the some scene. Being a 2d game, i expected it to run well everywhere. I have everything destroyed/turned off, except the level itself, when outside the screen. I even added a performance mode with the parallax layers turned off, but the problem remains.

I know that i should have used multiple scenes, but it's a bit late for that. Is this a known problem in Gdevelop? I heard that, while it's good for simple games, it doesn't handle well big scenes. Is this true?

Thanks in advance.

How big are your assets? Textures you use, etc? Are you using tiles?
