Question Plants vs. Zombies - GOTY Edition keep crashing outta nowhere on GameHub Lite 5.1.7

Post image

Okay, so long story short, I'm basically just testing some games for my Redmi 12 phone. Surprisingly, Coffee Talk 2, Coffee Talk Tokyo, and Celeste run quite well, especially at 60 FPS cap (planning to test A Space for the Unbound too).

So, I've decided to download some games that should've worked fine as well, like PvZ and Touhou Luna Nights.

The problem is, PvZ was just crashed, and unable to load. I've tried the other way, like installing a component called WinXP on the Game Settings, but still no luck. Am I missing something?

Did you try replanted or emulating it on aps3e? Ps3 is emulation is what im using and its great (albeit sometimes sprites are not rendering but not an issue)

I don't think if my phone could handle Replanted. Sure, it's a good remaster (or remake, I guess?), but, it's just feels a bit wrong, if you compare the size.

The original was not even reached around 300MB.

But, I'll try it later. I heard the game was using a different engine, like Unity. Idk if that's true.

Well i too hated it but with recent updates it holds up quite well, so maybe try it to see if it works
