HomeyArcade - Play msDOS games on Homey Dashboards
Central topic for questions/discussing the HomeyArcade App. You can use this topic to ask questions and share your experiences with using the app.
Ever thought to yourself “Man, I’d wish I could play my favorite msDOS games in Homey Dashboards” No? Me neither, but now you can! Yes, it does run DOOM… and more …
HomeyArcade turns your dashboard into a tiny retro machine with a growing library of classic shareware-era games, playable right inside a widget. Pick a game, pick a console skin, and start playing without leaving Homey.
All bundled titles are historical shareware/freeware distributions from their original rights holders.
This app is developed by @Doekse and currently only works on Homey Pro with Homey Dashboards
