What would be the process to run a Renpy game on a Chromebook running linux?
Is there a way to open it through the command prompt?
Is there some library(ies) that need to be downloaded beforehand?
Thanks for any help.

Re: How to run game on Linux on Chromebook
If it's running a flavour of Linux it should be able to run a Linux distribution of the game through whichever desktop environment it has.
If that really isn't working, try distributing an Android apk and set the Chromebook to open the game using Chrome through ARC Welder...

Frameworks & Scriptlets:
- Speech Bubble dialogue system
- Multiple Notify with ATL and history
- (WIP) Radial Masking - needs updating to use Shader
- 7.4 - Smooth Tinting using ATL and matrixcolor
- Several other repositories there too

I never knew about the ARC option, thanks! I can't do it for this instance but it's good to know for the future.
