Re: Game lags and unresponsive after playing half the game

When you do "show frame123" it does not replace previous frame, but just show frame123 on top of frame122, frame 121 etc. This likely reason why you game is lagging. As Alex pointed out either rename your images so renpy treat them as having same image tag or use "scene frame123"...

Re: Game lags and unresponsive after playing half the game

Alright so I did end up starting my project over. The problem begins at frame47 so I'm guessing it has something to do with the image file itself. Next step is removing it completely to verify it is causing the problem. Time to research how/why a image would do that. Any ideas?

I suspect Ren'Py might not be performing garbage collection for some reason.
it slows down about 2 images, stop and unresponsive, comes back up on another image thats located 2 images ahead of the stop then continuly freezes randomly after that point.

While running your game, shortly before where it normally lags out, press Shift + D and then press F4 This should bring up a small screen telling you how much memory you are using.
