Hi!
RTZ on the DS, that must be a real treat. 

As for running it on Symbian devices, I have n't noticed anything special performance wise, except that the first attemps was crashing abit. 

With your fixes it will be even better.  

Cheers
Lars

Unfortunately it runs at less than one frame per second, even when very little appears to be going on. For example, when the birds are circling when sitting on the first playable screen, everything moves really slowly. The video playback runs at normal speed (and looks great!)

Can someone who knows this engine take a look at it and give me some clues as to where to start? Even if someone could just send me a profile of this game sitting idle at a gameplay screen it would help.
