Hey there. I just recently got a Chromebook for free.
Is it possible to play BYOND on Chromebook OS?
Page me for more info or my attention. Also available on Discord.

No. BYOND is strictly Windows or the webclient for playing games, and only Windows or Linux for hosting.
|
I think it should be possible provided the game you're connecting to is webclient-friendly...

Developing a native client for other platforms isn't feasible with the current resources, but getting the webclient working well enough to provide a reliable client for those platforms is.

Wouldn't it be possible with setting up a virtual PC unto Chromebook, that is.
| |
If your system is powerful enough to run Windows on top of Linux like that, it would work fine.

Now, I just need to find this potential virtual PC.
