  • Networking does not work well
  • Mac OpenGL does not work with frame buffers
  • ARMv8 CPU core for Mac M1 and Raspberry Pi still has bugs
  • Games after the year 2000 have limitted success at running

Platforms that are tested

  • Emscripten (WASM)
  • Linux 64-bit
  • Mac (Arm)
  • Mac (Intel)
  • Raspberry Pi 4 32-bit
  • Raspberry Pi 4 64-bit
  • Windows 32-bit
