Game Lags First Time Only

Hi,

I'm working on a platformer game for android, and using cocoon.io to export.

When i open the app, and go to level 1 for the first time, there's a lag (stutter-like 1-2 seconds randomly)

But when i restart the layout after that lag, the game runs smoothly.

Doesn't Construct 2 preload all of the image or assets at the start of the app?

No, C2 loads the images placed on that layout into memory when you visit it. That's what causes the lag probably.

Do you use big or tons of smaller images?

Ah i see

My platformer game uses pixel art with mostly 16x16 art

But the layout is 3000 x 320 pixel

Then that shouldn't be the issue. Also, the size of the layout don't affect performance.
