Delta Time

Was discussing this game I made for the GMTK Game Jame 2021 in preparation of the upcoming 2023 event, and came back to show it to people. Turns out that all the comments about the game being too hard were onto something... the delta time calculations were scuffed.

Instead of making the gameplay the same speed regardless of framerate, it made it exponentially faster the higher the framerate.

Ah the time pressures of a game jam, only testing on my 60Hz monitor and the browser automatically applying vsync.

Thanks kebabulon for pointing out something wasn't working back then.
