A. Download and extract files

A1. Download window version of the game

A2. Install "ZArchiver" from google play (Optional , for unzipping the files)


A3. Open "ZArchiver"

Select the .zip


OR    .7z.001 (Depends on which one you have)

A4. Extract it

B. Install JoiPlay

B1. Download and install JoiPlay.apk and RPGmaker plugins.apk in order

https://www.patreon.com/joiplay


B2. Open JoiPlay -> Add Game

B3. Select the Game.exe you just extracted

 

Normally it is in your Download folder -> Game folder -> Game.exe

B4. Tap the game to play!


In fact it's a bit easier, as Joiplay has an option to extract the files in a zipped archive.

Developer

Can you tell me where that option is?

Does it work on splited zip files?

Thanks

It's under the + icon (the same icon that you use for adding a game), and it's the Import Archive File option. I'm not sure what you mean by "splited", but it worked for me when I used it for the zip of version 1.0.1 of Para Ark 2.

Since Patreon has a weird 200mb limit for each files, I have to split one big file into smaller part like .7z.001, .7z.002 ....

Ah, I see. The zip file that I successfully had Joiplay unzip for me was the itch.io download, where I imagine you didn't have to do the split. Maybe for Patreon you would be better off just including a link to Mega or somewhere for the download, which I think is what most devs on Patreon do.

Thanks :-)
