1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,427
In Project Heartbeat mere milliseconds can mean the difference between a

2
00:00:05,527 --> 00:00:09,957
record breaking run or an absolute failure. As a result, we

3
00:00:10,057 --> 00:00:14,793
are in an everlasting quest to lower latency and increase input

4
00:00:14,893 --> 00:00:20,551
consistency. With Project Heartbeat 2's new game engine, we've replaced the

5
00:00:20,651 --> 00:00:25,388
input system and developed cutting-edge rhythm game technology.

6
00:00:25,466 --> 00:00:28,392
The game's logic is now completely dettached

7
00:00:28,492 --> 00:00:31,419
from the framerate, through the new advanced

8
00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:35,614
tickless system developed specifically for Project Heartbeat.

9
00:00:38,666 --> 00:00:43,577
In previous versions of Project Heartbeat, your input used to only get

10
00:00:43,677 --> 00:00:47,943
checked once at the start of each frame, which meant that any

11
00:00:48,043 --> 00:00:52,452
button presses you did after that got snapped to the next frame

12
00:00:52,552 --> 00:00:57,248
With the tight timing in the game, this could sometimes mean defeat

13
00:00:57,348 --> 00:01:01,901
from the jaws of victory. With the new subtick system inputs this

14
00:01:02,001 --> 00:01:07,126
no longer matters, the game now knows precisely when you've pressed every

15
00:01:07,226 --> 00:01:12,208
single note and is able to precisely evaluate it. Effectively acting as

16
00:01:12,308 --> 00:01:15,286
if you were running an infinite frame rate.
