Allegro: A Game Engine for Automated Gaming

The game is based on automation and that and the interesting parts of it emerge only when you have become a factory. And I needed all the factory to be running so it was very obvious from the beginning that it will have to be optimized a lot. This is why we use Allegro basically just to draw a sprite and play a sound and reach from keyboard and everything other than that was written by us. So yes so it's like this. We spent a lot of time with optimizations while doing the game. Basically the the cycle was that once the game started to be public people made us big factories they could and then they complained on the form that it’s starting to slow down.
