You can also make chunk system (it's easy), and cut off chunks out of screen. This method can make any fps you want.
Also you draw only one layer, if you want to separate background/grass/trees/characters etc, your fps will go down, and you will have to optimize a lot of stuff.
P.S. One shader can drop down fps from 9999kkk to 0.1, you know?

I'll agree in that chunking, or at least only drawing those images that are on screen would be neat; 32000x32000 is a tad bigger than any screen or screens most people would have; also, not even the most hardcore bullet hell games create more than say, 40K bullets on-screen at the same time.

On the other hand, you'll never get more than 1000 FPS with the default love.run anyway, since it sleeps for 0.001 seconds each iteration (if you have vsync off), or more, depending on your screen's refresh rate, meaning the FPS will be a constant 60,75,120 or whatever else.

Also, shaders shouldn't be that big of an issue, if implemented correctly.

I get 530 stable fps with 36864 tiles which are 32x16 with GT720 and a Core2Duo 3.00 gHz.
You can send me the .love file and I'll test it out on my system if you want.
I'm drawing 9 chunks (= 9 spritebatches) each one consisting of 4096 sprites.

I'm not sure I understand what chunking is, and a couple google searches don't seem help. Is it something I have to write, or does it just mean using SpriteBatches? Right now I'm using a single spritebatch for all those 10000 tiles (from a 1024x1024 tileset.png) and drawing it once per frame.

it's 3200x3200, I think. 100x100 tiles, each 32x32. So it's close to a 4K screen.

I already added a custom love.run to my main.lua to make sure that didn't impact the measurement of my horrible code.

I sent you a pm, turns out you were clearing and adding the quads to the spriteBatch every frame AND doing that in love.draw, which is a no-no.
You're only supposed to do it once (unless you're gonna change the spritebatch).

Yeah, turns out I totally misunderstood spritebatches Thank you! Worked around it for today and I went from 300 to 4000 fps.

I know it doesn't look like much, but I got animations and classes and chunks and spritebatches and depth sorting to work all together and I don't know how I managed it.

Everyone is doing super cool stuff! I generally just lurk this thread, but because today I got sick of my current project (too open-ended!) so I thought I'd just share a screen at least.

It is kind of a point and click, with a bit of a different take. I really like confined spaces with a work-with-what-you've-got approach (FTL, Infinite Space, Dont Starve), but that shit is hard to get tight! I'll probably figure out a way to cut down the features so I can finish (you've got to finish!) Hard decisions ahead

Here is a screen showing what you'll see when you start the game.

looks really promising. Too bad you got sick of it.
(you have to finish it !! *no pressure*)

Thanks! I'm adamant about finishing games, I believe you can not truly learn from it otherwise, as there is no result to put your experience in perspective. That doesn't mean I'll never put games on hold though.....
