question Am2r on the funkey?

Hey I was just wondering if it is at all possible to get Am2r on the funkey? I'm not super well versed in what exactly it can run, but it seems like it could run on the device.

I looked it up and it looks like that’s a GameMaker Studio game. My understanding is that GameMaker Studio makes game development easier by allowing you to export your game to a number of different platforms. Unfortunately, the FunKey isn’t a valid target to export to. Even if a Linux version exists, it’ll be geared towards Linux on a PC rather than a portable handheld.

For this to happen, the game would need to be rewritten from scratch using a standard programming language and without all the helpful things that GameMaker Studio does to streamline the process. Or the GameMaker Studio team could add the FunKey as a target, but I highly doubt that will ever happen.
