Ahh, I have tested it myself! I made a copy and tested it with and without getKey->K. The one with ran slower.
Frame speed or movement speed? That's the important part.

I wasn't doubting your knowledge of Axe 
Again, don't take my word for it. Test it yourself. 'S always the best way to learn. (Especially when I doubt my knowledge of Axe)

Hmm... Well, here was my original code:
Repeat getKey(15)
getKey->K
X-(K=...)+(K=...)->X
Y-(K=...)+(K=...)->Y
That ran almost at the same speed as BASIC. My new code is the same, but I don't store getKey to K and instead of (K=...), I use (getKey(...)). Now it runs extremely fast. 
Then your issue was probably key debouncing. Direct input [getKey(xx)] will fire every frame. getKey->K and testing K will fire every few frames because of the way that input routine works...if I recall correctly. Don't quote me on that, tho.
Regardless, getKey->K and testing K shouldn't be itself particularly slower than getKey(K). That is to say, the instructions shouldn't take much longer.
Wait... Could it possibly be different or help to know that I'm using sprites, not just a single pixel?
Maybe I should clarify. Direct input goes off every frame. Testing getKey->K does not. This means that, if you're updating the position of ANYTHING, be it sprite, character or pixel, that thing will move every few frames if you're using getKey->K, and every frame if you're using direct input. I'm about 80% sure I know what I'm talking about.

Easy Game: Exactly What It Says On The Tin
Do not click that link. It goes to TVTropes, and before you know it it'll be 3 AM and you'll have twelveteen open tabs. I speak from experience. I wish I could try out all the contest entries...I was so hyped for 'em. Sadly, I don't have my calc, but kudos to all the participants! Omnimaga's cumulative level of amazing has gone up because of you.

Nevermind! I did it, thanks anyway guys! I was storing getKey to a variable, which I'm guessing is a no-no in Axe. Maybe that's your problem too, mrmprog?
This really shouldn't be a problem. In fact, I'd go as far as saying it's not the problem. getKey->K is perfectly legitimate code.

Welcome here! It's always nice to see some fresh talent around. I can't wait to see what you come up with! (Just try not to bite off too much for your first project. As someone who's developing one right now, let me tell you that RPGs are not for the faint of heart. Good luck! )

Keoni, Blazer's Ultimate Tutorial, shrineofseals.net and FEditor Advance are a good starting point. Especially the last one.
There is only ONE SLOT REMAINING for full custom character animations! Geek has way too many on his hands already. After that spot is filled, all animations will be repalettes unless you can sprite them yourself!

Is this for snes?
@geekboy you can use my songs as long as you credit me.
The Thracia hacking community isn't nearly as good at providing tools for other people to duplicate their work. I really wanted to use FE5 as a base, but in the end, it was not to be...so, in short, this is a hack of the first US-released Fire Emblem, for the Game Boy Advance, and in shorter, no. Thanks for giving us lease to use your songs. They'll likely see inclusion in the hack. ED: I'm still looking for one more Pegasus/Falcoknight! First come first served.

This is one of the many, many things Japan has produced which I find epic and bizarre at the same time. * JustCause puts Melt on Repeat One

With some help from ZippyDee I managed to finish my sprites. 
Those look excellent. Via text from Geekboy, I can confirm that he'll be able to script those fairly soon. Thanks for the submission!

[22:19:03] <+Just> frey shows up and instantly
[22:19:10] <+Just> Everything goes wtd
[22:19:14] <+Just> *wtf
And it wasn't even my fault.
I never said it was. I was just remarking that shenanigansy things tend to happen around you. See also: You got married to Iambian.
I know you never said it, but it was implied
And Etri got married to Iambian, not me! She despises my typos!
Excuse me while I totally miss out on vitally important events and assume I know what's going on. X.x anyone have the logs?
