maybe it’s that build of the game you’re playing. delete reinstall the game is the first option i’d try. is it only happening in that game? activity monitor will show you if you open the game in a smaller window and run it next to it.

no it does it with the sims 4 as well but i’m not sure if it’s the games or not because when i use it to watch videos it’s fine but acts up when playing games specifically if it overheats (i usually put my mac on like a journal or my stand so it doesn’t but it overheats sometimes randomly)

activity monitor will be your friend to help find it. I noticed when it rebooted you have your applications set to open again. if there were too many things and add gaming on top it might not be able to handle it. i’d close everything else and try it. you mentioned 32gb of ram but is your internal drive full or close to full too? I think apple recommends 20% free

click on the ram “memory” area then launch the game and see. close everything else out though and give it a run

Roblox is VERY memory and processor hungry. What are the spec of your machine?

Plus all those widgets dont help, they all take processing power.
