FOR PEOPLE WHO WANNA PLAY ON ANDROID:


so, ive got a way to play the game on android but obviously it's unofficial and can get buggy. ive personally played an entire route on my phone with this method and only had issues with the keyboard during creation but that's why floating keyboard exists.

also just a heads up the buttons for the menu and things are small but are there and under the text box. you can still save the same through there.


anyway here's how i did it.


1. so go to the joiplay patreon (https://www.patreon.com/joiplay?utm_campaign=creatorshare_fan) and from their public releases download joiplay apk 1st (it will warn you about it being harmful, but it is safe) and then after that install the renpy plugin and update that to joiplay (same warning, still safe)


2. download the latest RH update and unzip it into your files. (note that it has to be either the windows or pc versions only.)


3. go to your new joiplay app and go through all the agreements and slides, click the + at the top right and add game. from there locate your RH file which will most likely be in your downloads folder and add either the .exe (my preference) or .py files.


4. next it will give you the chance to rename the game, give it a version, and add an icon (it should do this automatically so just keep clicking okay.)


5. next open your game and enjoy. from the joiplay app you can add it to your homescreen as well.


just remember the floating keyboard mechanism for when you get to the character creation so you can type your desired name.


if you need help just comment below :)

Does this work for like any vn from itchio, do yk amgame called touchstarved cause i wanna play that on my phone

it does work for MOST vns 🙏🏻 i have no clue about touchstarved itself tho, but i have done this with more games than RH

iPhone cannot run this. PC or Apple laptops can run this, and so can Linux, but you can't run this on mobile devices for the most part.

correct


i did state android at the top of my comment 😊 iphone limits what people can do on their phones

Joiplay works for visual novels made in Ren'py engine (which is a good thing as most VN's are made in that engine here on itch.io) and HTML games, Unity games don't work.

TouchStarved works on joiplay, i played myself. U just need to download the last joiplay version and the Ren'py Plugin (in whatever browser you have)

Omg i tried t and it said it doesnt work for unity can u like tell me how undid it pls 😭🙏

uhm, undid what? i'm confused.

unity games doesn't work in joiplay, only Ren'py and HTMl games

srry i meant how u did it

well, i normally download the game, extract, open joiplay, click on the + button up there and search for the file, normally named after the game name and sh/py or exe after.
