microStudio game engine can now work as a standalone (offline) app for Windows, macOS, Linux and now Raspberry Pi! To celebrate this, I have created this page on itch.io for microStudio:
https://microstudio.itch.io/microstudio
All the downloads are available there, as well as on Github.
I will try to update the app on a monthly basis :-)
Go Folks
Support it by rating it on itchio :)
I tried it on my Pi, but it just says this: Segmentation Fault (core dumped) My only guess is I'm using an ARM64 OS (Ubuntu Desktop), not ARMHF, but I have multiarch activated. Any help?
Also will there be Pi exports?
@hadcl4 I just had the opportunity to check on a Raspberry Pi 4 with Pi OS (Raspbian), and a Pi 400 with Pi OS (the app is working on both). Maybe if you like to experiment, you could try to build the app yourself, following this recipe: https://microstudio.dev/community/articles/recipe-standalone-microstudio-app---work-in-progress/243/ Let me know what you get!
Pi exports: yes definitely! I will look into it sometime, shouldn't be too hard now that I have a working build process on Raspberry Pi.
Tried building it, but failed with the npm run make command:
An unhandled rejection has occurred inside Forge:
Error: Cannot make for rpm, the following external binaries need to be installed: rpmbuild

I'm not used to NPM, so I'm not sure what the error means (most of my programs are in Python, not JS).
As @JimB007 found out, on Linux systems you will need to install rpm, you do this as follows:
sudo apt install rpm
I will update the recipe accordingly.
Just tried again, made it farther, but then it comes up with an error saying the license field is missing, even though I entered it in (as MIT). Maybe just microStudio can't compile on an ARM64 OS?
Android when.
