Frames Per Second

Frames per second, often referred to as FPS, are the amount of game frames that cycle per one second. A higher rate of FPS will have a faster game with time passing faster, feeling as if in a time machine. A slow FPS will feels sluggish, and time will feel as if it is dragging on forever. There are pros and cons to tweaking one's frames per second, but it is best to strike a balance between speed and reliable control.
