No WiFi gameplay

I don’t have cell data because I have an iPod touch, but I do have WiFi. I don’t know if you have heard of it, but there is a emulator called eclipse, and it is the same concept but it works like an app after adding it to your Home Screen. I would like to do this with afterplay, as the emulator is way nicer than eclipse and it receives additional updates often, but I can’t upload any games when I’m offline. So you can check out the eclipse emulator to see what I mean if you need to, but I think this would be a really nice feature :) thanks in advance, and have a good day!

Being able to run a game locally with local saves that gets uploaded when ypu have internet again.
A use case could be on airplane ride, for example

Great idea Erik, it's on the roadmap :)

Maybe offline gameplay is a better title

IT'S NOT WIFI, WIFI IS A WIRELESS CONNECTION ONTO THE INTERNET, THE GAME CAN RUN WITHOUT WIFI JUST FINE IT ONLY NEEDS THE INTERNET ARRRRGHHHH............ Your feature idea has a few issues, all save data and rom data will need to be cached on the user side, and emulation will be limited to non-streamable consoles. Extra configuration data will also need to be stored, and the website won't even be retrievable without the internet to begin with. While this feature is planned to come out eventually, it has a lot of drawbacks we need to consider, mostly the fact that it requires a lot of work on the user end. (Which by using the magic of the internet, you can get rid off) The fact that it has been avoided is one of the reasons why afterplay runs so well currently.

Green Turtle: I see. I was only wondering because you can use a website offline on iPhone if you add it to your Home Screen. I can open afterplay without internet, but not play any of the games because i need to upload roms.
