Your CPU might have two cores, but mine has 4 with hyperthreading, so their game has to scale between the two of our systems, giving me a notable performance improvement over yours. In order to create a scalable game engine, you kind of have to design it to be that way from the ground up because it affects how you structure your frame. Sure you can isolate certain parts of the loop and break that down into tasks to send to the thread pool you created, like they probably did for their animation, but I bet you a lot of what's causing the bottlenecks in performance does not allow for that without some serious rewrites.”
