might run this for fun, but i looked at other runs including last place and the watering section is so much faster then when i play. whenever i water the flowers its around 3-4 seconds slower on each patch of flowers. I originally downloaded the itch.io version but i thought maybe the steam version is faster but theyre the exact same. Is there something im doing wrong? am i running the game wrong? im just confused and i doubt its some tech to make it faster bc even last place has it faster than me and i got a 5:30 with the slower watering (not submitted gonna wait till i get a better time). Im just so fucking confused and help would be appreciated :)

i count it from first patch its like 8-9 seconds for what i see its the same timing but always you need to full face down the watering can cause if you dont the progression seems to be slower

wait the second place runner started watering the flowers multiple seconds after me but finished before me and it seems the time it took for them to water the flowers is significantly less per patch than it took me

I actually figured it out. I found that I had to change my refresh rate to 60hz so the game runs at 60fps and it makes the watering go as fast as it needs to be. My default refresh rate is 360hz and I found that the lower I put my refresh rate, the lower the fps the game runs at, so the lower I put my refresh rate the faster the watering goes, although it’s kinda pointless to run it at like stupidly low fps values bc the game itself becomes unplayable, so 60hz/fps becomes perfect for it. Probably should put this info for other people because anyone else with high refresh rate monitors will have the same issue and be confused lol
