Never had any problems. FPS can drop a bit when there is a lot enemies and effects on the screen but it's barely noticable.

Its a great game, from the little I have played, but it runs so poorly its probably not woth bothering in its current state.

Tinker Steps:Switch to older version: 9.0-2

Input:Inaccuracy, Lag

Performance:Significant Performance Problems

It renders at an acceptable rate, but signifigantly slows down all other programd and I get an unacceptable input delay (1 to 8 seconds it seems)

Great out of the box experience.

Battery Performance:

Locked 45 FPS TDP 10W

Difficult To Read Text:

Some text is really difficult to read. After a little it hurts my eyes.

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

There can be FPS drops down to 30s when it gets to the later parts of a run. Too many enemies cause some performance problems.

No tinkering needed. The game is really fun to pick up and play when you just can't be bothered with something complicated.
