Any way to convert 64-bit renpy games to 32-bit?

[player22]

So, I noticed MANY new renpy games no longer have both the 32-bit and 64-bit executable files in them. I believe that developers are now creating renpy games with the latest renpy editing platform out there which no longer supports 32-bit - if I'm not wrong.

When I start this new games, nothing happens. The games don't start at all.
Is there a way to convert new games into games that would work on a 32-bit operating system?

Yes, it's possible. As long as the game use a 7.x version of Ren'Py, the SDK come with a 32bits launcher and libraries.

But the question is more: Would the game works.

Since any 20yo or less computer can perfectly run a 64 bits OS, who still use a 32 bits one, except people who have a really old computer ; a computer that would probably don't meet Ren'Py OpenGL 3 requirements anyway.

Are you guys playing on raspberry pi or something?

I'm interested in knowing why would you go to such lengths instead of just upgrading your OS to 64bit.

Yeh having the same issue on a Raspberry Pi 4B with 8gig ram using twister OS. Can only get 32.exe to work. Exe without the 32 before it tries but fails through wine and dosbox.
Any help or ideas?
Appreciated

The Raspberry Pi 4B has a 64bit processor. Twister OS doesn't support 64bit. Raspberry PI OS supports 64bit. Ubuntu supports 64bit on the 4B. Manjaro, Kali Linux, and Ubuntu MATE, as well.

Not everyone can afford it, for example I live in a third world communist country and the last time I was able to buy a PC was more than a decade ago.

Well, more than a decade ago PCs were already powered by a 64 bits CPU, and 64 bits Linux distributions are the same price than 32 bits ones...

don't know your situation but if you have a Core Duo and vista or newer you have a 64 bit platform
