hi,
this is a great and sophisticated game and has good feeling...RPG, various quests, stage set and nice graphics - and more

just such a trifle...game runs at 50fps - it is a pity that you did not do it at 60fps, because then they would be in addition perfectly smooth...i know that this is a silly thing, but when the game is generally excellent, so I look at the little things

I have the same opinion like you about framerate, but...
I had once gameplay 60 FPS while downloading a software. I had a strange feeling that GG2 is more optimized
I don't know if this will repeat when I will download a program meanwhile. Perhaps it was 60 FPS of another reason. I should test it for sure soon.

thanks to your response..mike

i would also like to read the opinion of the author game:)

Well, I have two good reasons why this game is 50 fps instead of 60.

1. A lot of people still have old pcs and use outdated graphic-cards. When they see retro-platformers like this, they think it will run on old computers and then it runs shitty and they come to me and complain. But because this game is using lots and lots of graphics with alpha channels and shaders (blood, light, hell fog, rain etc), you need a decent graphic-card to run the game fine or else those alpha effects will make the game run choppy. This isn't noticable as much if the game already runs only at 50 fps, because a drop from 60 to 40 is more noticable than a drop from only 50 to 40.

2. The standard for the program I was using to make GunGirl 2 is set to 50 fps. I didn't even care about fps until maybe halfway through the development-time. By then, I changed it to 60 just to see how much stuff I would have to fix to make it run at 60 instead of 50. But it was literally EVERYTHING! Almost every timer in the game, rather it be timers for animations or timers for monster behavior, are calculated with a base of 50 = 1 sec. So this meant I would have to change everything I've done so far, every sound, animation, jumping, running etc etc, everything would have to be changed so it matches the new fps rate. And because I'm lazy as hell and I didn't want to spend so much time on something that has so little effect on the gameplay - I just changed it back to 50 and went on to something more important

Hmm... it seems I'm really lucky about 1st reason. I have almost 7-years old PC and I experienced slowdown in Town of Machine while zombies came from every grave.
I understand the 2nd reason. I had the same "pain" while making something in Swish Max Studio - I must fix everything if I wanted 60 FPS instead 30, so it was better to make it from beginning.

i tried the game on pc: cpu single core Celeron 2.5GHz, 512MB RAM, GF 7600 and the game went 100% good, only the station Maschine it sometimes slowed - gungirl is definitely much better "optimized" than, Half-Life 2D: Codename Gordon

otherwise it's really a shame that the game wasn't been made at 60fps from the beginning
