Quoting: edoIm getting the impression that windows amd driver isnt faster anymore, at least on the same level

Is it the original game code or the Feral code? Does the Windows version do the same thing?

Serious Sam Fusion 2017 now has benchmark modes and more, here's some quick tests
18 May 2017 at 6:18 pm UTC

One of the main features of Fusion is cross-game workshop/modding support. Steam is the only platform featuring workshop currently, so the game appearing in GOG or anywhere else is very unlikely.
