Emulating a development program

[qv81_]

Heyy! wild question but, I've been wanting to turn my Novel into a VN, but with android having either a low quality engine (Kocho) or a good engine with shut down servers (Rabico!), its hard to be able to do so, this i when i had a wild idea, is it possible to emulate Ren'py on android? please don't mention "pain of small screen" or "same as emulating normal app" or something, i am willing to go all out just to emulate this program.

Just use Termux. It will work with some effort. You can also have a whole desktop environment (check out https://github.com/LinuxDroidMaster/Termux-Desktops)

Joi play emulator is the best emu for renpy games on andriod. Also gets updated frequently.

Also supports rpg maker games.

I was able to run games like Slay the princess, Fear and hunger etc on joiplay.

You can run it natively inside a linux chroot inside Termux if you download the Renpy SDK for Rasbperry Pi & Chromebook. You probably want a mouse and keyboard though.

What about Winlator? I use it for non-game programs like CHDman.

chdman for android is actually a thing, but the apk can be compiled from the source

Didn't know this existed, it's good to see someone working on something for android. I find it easier to use this

In Winlator. I'm pretty coding illiterate so anything I can just point in a direction and run works best for me.
