- Email from Peter Wester (engine programmer): "All the gameplay is run at 60 fps. This means physics, puzzles, player movement, mouse/kb/gamepad input and some animations. The only things that can be unlocked are particles, some animations and texture animations. This is the same for all other HPL-based games!"
