Very interesting news. I haven’t tried it out personally; But if it works, I imagine that’d be huge.

No, sadly, unless you have an amd64 phone, which would honestly be weird at this point.

That’s why I prefer to distribute programs as .wasm files. Efficiently run code on any hardware.

It would be great if publishers started doing this, however, this way you cannot sell Skyrim or/and gta5 *th time in a row

It’s likely you could use winlator to play the windows version of the game (I know, not quite the same, although it does run wine via a linux container lmao)

Winlator is kind of a bitch to configure to get things running smoothly. I spent wayyyyyyy too much time trying to get new vegas to run at 60fps on my fold 4 just because I wanted to see if I could. I got close but now it crashes every minute or so. Moved my save over to my pc lmao. If you’d like, you can dm me and I can try to help you out with getting it to run. I ended up joining several discord servers to try to learn what the options do. It sucked but I think i have a somewhat basic understanding of how things function now.

Box64 might be worth checking out. I didn’t get much out of it but your mileage may vary.
