Can I play this game without downloading something?

Post by ITI1K3 »

I heard about this game on Youtube, and I think this game is pretty awesome. Problem is, I can't play it due to downloading a certain link. If you can find a way to play this game without downloading anything, and play it directly from the site, that would attract alot of people who have slower computers, such as I.

The game is surprisingly heavy on the processor.

There is no difference between downloading and running a small java client or running the client online though. It would be equally as taxing on your cpu.

Probably trying to run it from a school/work computer that doesn't allow out of browser programs to be installed.

I'm pretty sure you can run HnH off a flash drive.

It won't work without downloading - you'll need Java and also some libaries (Jogl + Gluegen) for the client - and even if it where a "browser game" you still need to download resources...

Arcanist - you can run Ender from stick aslong the PC can run it...

or you'd need a Linux Live system including Java, client (Ender) and libaries installed on a stick (btw. something i'm working on already - but it will still take time to get it more foolproof to offer an ISO that you can burn to DVD, boot from and autoinstall to stick (minimum 8GB i guess) ;) )
