Slows my old system a bit (not too much)
I guess I was kind of hoping it could be rebuilt faster while being functional.
Then, upgrade graphics once you have a working game.
I dont have any real experience in game design/programming to tell me best practices though.
What is here is nice.

Well, it's normal for it.
If you want to play with it - search Unstable Diffusion discord server, there are plenty of guides.
