A few days ago I noticed that my favorite BlackBerry PlayBook game of the moment called Dillo Hills started lagging (running very slow overall) and the graphics were pretty pixelated.  It appears that others including Susan have been having this issue, particularly with Dillo Hills, and it seems to be related to the last OS update we received last week on the BlackBerry PlayBook.  If you recall, the update included Adobe Flash 10.3, and Adobe Air 2.7 compatibility.  We want to know if any of you guys have experienced similar issues with this game, or any other application or game on the PlayBook.  Drop us a line!

    Fly Squirrel 2 is much slower than it was in the last 1.0.5 update.
    Gravitee Wars seems a bit slower.

    Howdy – I’m Fex, the dev for Dillo Hills.

    As discussed on our facebook page, Dillo Hills was, indeed, affected by the latest Playbook OS update. Several other games that utilized GPU rendering were also affected.

    Adobe has assured us that they were working as quickly as they can to resolve the problem.
