Do you know if it’s easy to run or allow mobiles or tablets to run Ren’py games? I’m essentially halfway through Chapter 1 but don’t want to freeze out mobile and tablet players that have downloaded the game. 

I’m already having issues with allowing players to continue their save data that’s why I came up with that “temporary” memory game feature. 

No not so far. I’d been trying to finish the general plan for Chapter 1 before fully trying to transfer the game onto Ren’py. 

I’ll definitely refer back to this though. I have a lot to learn about code myself so I’ll probably follow what you’ve said here when I’ve actually started the process. 

Thanks for your help. I didn’t know you could do that. That’ll save me a lot of time.

(UPDATE) 

I’ve tried it on both bluestacks 10 (the app player might keep putting me back to bluestacks 5, but it works) and bluestacks 5 and they both work for me. It’s probably better to download bluestacks 5 and use that rather than 10 if that’s the one causing problems. 

It will probably run easier on mobile, tablet or iPad. 

I’ve noticed that if bluestacks crashes once when trying to open the game, it always works when you boot it back up. 

If the problem keeps happening no matter where you download it though, let me know. I’ll do my utmost to help.

Oh, I’m sorry to hear that.

I’ll try to get to the bottom of this right now. The last time I tested the game was probably using bluestacks 5 so I’ll test it out with bluestacks 10 and see if it’s a general problem. 

No problem! Hope you enjoy.

(UPDATE) 

I’ve managed to get it to work on Windows using Bluestacks. Just follow the tutorial I’ve written and it should be fine. The game plays fine on it too. Just let me know if it doesn’t! 

Yeah, it’s something I was looking into. Once the decision’s been made by the people at Kocho on whether this game can be officially on the app, then I’ll definitely start looking into getting on Windows. I’ll do my best on that end.

Thanks for your words!
