About Make Me LAG

You believe that running a game at over 120 FPS is smart? Well, you're WRONG!

Make Me LAG is the first game that features a revolutionary new control scheme: your character actions are determined by the game frame count! Use external softwares and other tricks to lower the FPS count and control your character to defeat evil monsters and save the world!

Open too many tabs on your browsers, play other games simultaneously, hack the internet, we don't care what you do, as long as you make the game lag!

Make Me LAG was created during the Internet Festival Game Jam of Pisa in 48 hours and won the first prize.

Truly a unique concept for a game and a real challenge for a good computer. Now imagine if the enemies fought back, and you would have to dodge or block to not get hit... Make Me LAG 2?

Thankfully there are ways to “cheat” the game and lag it without going overboard on the external software. Apparently my PC is not potato enough and this game is optimized slop so I couldn’t lag it lol. Really creative and nice short game.

Игра "Make Me LAG" – это действительно уникальный опыт, который играет с вашим восприятием и терпением. Название говорит само за себя, и разработчики не обманули – лаги здесь не просто баги, а полноценная игровая механика. Поначалу это вызывает легкое недоумение, затем – раздражение, но в какой-то момент ты начинаешь принимать этот хаос, как часть творческого замысла. Геймплей построен на преодолении препятствий, которые намеренно затруднены с помощью задержек, пропадающих текстур и внезапных зависаний. Это похоже на решение головоломки, где твоим главным врагом становится сама игра. Но когда тебе все же удается пройти очередной сложный участок, испытываешь истинное удовлетворение, как будто покорил Эверест. Это игра для тех, кто любит выходить из зоны комфорта и ценит нестандартные подходы. Не ждите от нее красоты или плавной картинки, ждите вызова и, возможно, нового взгляда на то, какой может быть видеоигра.

Interesting game concept. Have a ♥♥♥♥ computer? Perfect! Have an ICBM top of the line computer? Use the tab up there to drag that window around :)

One of the games where a potato PC is *required*. It's short, only taking around 10-20 minutes depending on how relatively fast said PC is.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.

Hogwarts Legacy price history: where the floor really is

Our Hogwarts Legacy price history runs to 100 daily readings and a $3.99 median. Why the sub-dollar figure in search results is noise, and what to actually pay.

Our Starfield price history shows one reseller set the all-time low over five weeks in late summer 2026. What a good price looks like now, and why Game Pass comes first.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy

The Rust price has two answers: an official one that barely moves, and a reseller one that sat in single digits for 95 days and then disappeared. Our record shows both.

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
