Contest announcement: KeeperRL Lag Fest

I've been working a lot on optimizations for the past few game updates, and my impression is that the game has started to run really fine even with large dungeons.

Now I want you to prove me wrong! Send in your most lagging dungeons, and I will use them to profile and optimize the game further, on live stream. Submissions that end with successful optimizations, as well as the most ambitious/cool attempts (judged at my own discretion) will be rewarded with KeeperRL merchandise.



[h2]Rules of the contest:[/h2]
  • Deadline is Friday, April 21st, 23:59 UTC.
  • Dungeons must be created using the vanilla game with no cheating.
  • Dungeons can be submitted in the form of save files using the in-game bug-reporting tool if they are smaller than 50mb. After the submission, send an email to [email protected] with your install id (found at the bottom of the game's main menu).
  • Submissions can also be sent through Google Drive or other file sharing platforms, especially if they are over 50mb. Send the link to [email protected].
  • Result announcement and live stream will happen during the week after the 24th of April.
  • Additional details and rules may be added in the future with the goal of keeping the contest fair and fun for everyone.
