How do I ?

HI,

I would like to put the exported game on a flash drive in anticipation of my thesis. if I export it is it possible to open it as a project on a flash drive or do I have to have construct installed? how could I do?

You could try it and find out.

Nw.js export allows for running on a desktop OS.

A web export will work if you run a web server on your localhost. If you have web access you could also upload the web export to a website, or even just use remote preview directly from your project.
