Speeding up game for Mobile

Is there a way to speed the whole game up?

it runs faster in my editor than on my mobile, would be nice to speed the whole game up without having to go through every game object and speed things up. is there a global setting.

 

What do you mean? are you talking about fast/slow motion or the frame rate?

if you're talking about the frame rate there's no secret setting, you just gotta optimize for mobile.

 

The whole game is just running slower, so there is no way around this, just got to speed up every element?

 

What do you mean speed up every element?

You need to see what's running slow (in the profiler) and make it faster, IE: optimize

 

Yes. Enable the "Warp Speed" option in the player settings. This should make the game run at least 15 times faster.

In all seriousness though...

There are two basic concepts. "CPU Locked" and "GPU Locked". Performance is either degraded due to:

- The CPU is at maximum load
- the GPU is at maximum load

This is where you first determination should be as it will allow you to figure out if you need to focus on graphics or code optimisation.

From there you will need to use the profiler to figure out exactly what is causing issues.

Also bear in mind with mobile you have to watch out for thermal throttling where the OS will actually limit CPU/GPU usage to reduce temperature.

 

Its not that the game is running terribly, everything works, just being on mobile i think its running slower than it does on a powerful laptop. would be nice to increase the speed by 2
its only a simple 2D game, so i dont think there is any serious graphics issues.

 

Don't think, check.
The profiler will tell you all you need to know.

A mobile device has less processing power, what do you expect the engine to do exactly? it's gonna run faster on better hardware (IE a development computer)

 

" what do you expect the engine to do exactly? it's gonna run faster on better hardware (IE a development computer)" which was my point exactly, which is why i posted this question.

but yes i have heard about profiler before and how useful it is, will def check it out, thanks guys.

 

If I understand what you mean, look into making your code frame rate independent.

 

also... burst compiler.
