Games lags A LOT on stages other than Debug stage, graphics settings don't seem to help much #240

Fantasy Crescendo Version: 0.3.0 alpha (Stable)
Operating System: Windows 7 Professional

My Computer's specs are: Intel Pentium CPU G645 @ 2.90GHz processor, ATI Radeon HD 5450 graphics card, and 8GB RAM. However, despite the low specs, the game has no struggle running Debug stage; Forest of Magic runs at about 6 FPS, while Netherworld runs at about 8 FPS, but Debug stage runs at about 60 FPS, like normal. The graphics configurations here are on minimum. Not tested with multiple players.

This seems to be caused largely by unalterable settings for image effects. We should expose these settings on the game's option screen, which can allow lower end machines to play the game at a reasonable performance.

We've started exposing graphical settings in the game's option screen. For now, the image effects can be turned off. We'll be adding more in the future to reduce the graphical load on lower end machines.
