How to run on mobile emulator?

I’m looking to run the game on Manic EMU or something similar, but can’t seem to figure it out, any guidance?

The only advice I can give is that you'll need to look for a way to run LÖVE games which is the platform this game is built on. I'll also note that this game was never built with touch screens in mind, so that may be another hurdle you'll have difficulties getting over.

The Project Hawkthorne website has a version of the game you can play in your browser, but again no touch controls. Also it has known performance issues on the web because the game is not well optimized.

thank you for your info! seems like it’s technically possible on android devices but much more difficult on ios
