The Plucky Squire running on a 16" M1 Pro Macbook Pro with 16GB RAM through CrossOver Preview 25.0.0.38203 using GPTK 2.0b1! A big thank you to Jfishin for capturing this gameplay!
Storybook characters discover a three-dimensional world outside the pages of their book and must jump between 2D & 3D realms to save their friends in this charming action-adventure.

Performance: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Resolution: 1440p (80% Resolution Scale)
Graphics: High
Notes: •Minor shader stutter •The graphics settings were chosen to ensure smooth gameplay for both the 2D and 3D parts of the game. 2D sections run at around 100 FPS, while the 3D areas hold a steady 60 FPS. These settings provide a good balance, keeping the game running well across both styles. •Set Shadows to LOW if you want to turn geo-shaders OFF.
