There is a game for rpg maker mv that I wanna play but I really cant play it as the creator of game made no version of android and I just bought it, I was wondering could I play it on android without joiplay as joiplay just crashes at using a specefic skill in battle and without using it the battle doesnt end, so it sucks

I did not test it but Android should be able to Play RPG Maker Games which are deployed as
HTML5 Game.
About how to play RPG Maker Games deployed to Windows on Android, i know nothing about.

They deployed the game for all 3 windows, linux and mac but not for android, and I saw that they deployed their other games for android too so I dont know why they didnt deployed this one too, it would be easier

1) @Bex suggestion to play it on android only works as long as it is not an encrypted and packaged game, because with encryption you'll need the official player and can't bypass it with the index.html

Exe's for windows don't work on android - it has to be deployed to android to be able to be played there.

2) Android has a lot less resources than a full computer. It is rather easy to create a game that cannot be played on android even if it is good on a full computer.
For example size of parallax maps: with most android devices, maximum parallax is somewhere 30x30 tiles, with high-end devices possibly bein able to handle a 50x50 map as maximum.
A full computer can easily handle a 100x100 parallax map, with high-end-devices and good game developers making 150x150 or greater maps possible.

So it might simply be impossible to deploy that game to android.

I never knew that android had that flaws, it would be helpful in making games, thanks for telling, The devs just say the game is heavy for androids to support properly I guess I will just switch to my pc then

I do not mean to derail or hijack, but:
Can i also play a non encrypted but packaged html deployed project on Android?

And do i recall correctly that the standard RTP does not need to be encrypted?
I know mostly all DLC require that. But what about RTP only?

1) depends on how the packaging goes - you simply cannot run exes from windows on android
But you can run the web version localoly on android as long as the game can run on the low end hardware.

99% no in my opinion, but there might be some android program to handle certain archivers.

2) RTP does not require encryption, no. And a lot of the free resources from this forum neither.
Only most purchased resources require the encryption.

Just for info, [removed by mod] for android actually does decrypt encrypted games for you so dont worry about encryption

An acting colleague of mine asked if I wanted to translate a script of 88 pages from English to a different language. 88 pages. For free!! What?!

New update for Battle Castle: Shadow from the Past A Shadow's Echo. No gameplay changes or new content, but lots of things got renamed, including the game title, for extra immersion. Some things related to sound too, like activating chests and taking things.
