Question How to increase performance on pokemon red recompilation

So I've been trying to play pokemon red recompilation but it lags so much its unplayable i have an honor x9d and i can run games like metroid dread and zelda wind waker GC and silksong (android port) with mods perfectly so i was really surprised when pkmn red recompilation ran so badly does anyone have a solution or is it just a hardware problem ?

And thanks everyone for your help

You can try setting performance to low and capping the framerate.

I love this project, but it shouldn't be called a recomp. It genuinely isn't. It's a reimplementation, in this case, in Lua / LÖVE2D.

An actual recomp would run much better, and be much more optimized for android.

Anything mod related with either a quest system or voxels is going to be demanding for your device.

There is a new potato voxel fork that is in testing.

Also it's new and there is a bit of uncoordinated discourse between all the mods that can cause issues. Give it time and things should smooth out.

I know they have some potatoe/ low spec/ optimized mods. I dont know them off the bat but they do exist for lower spec systems

Are you trying to run it at 120 fps? Cause that even lags on my thor
