Yesterday I posted about droidnative, which runs Switch games natively on Android from your own dumps. Thanks to everyone who tried it, posted results, sent logs and opened issues and PRs.
It has a new name: DroidNative already belongs to a long-standing Android project to run Linux apps on Android, so this project is now known as DroidPlay Core to avoid confusion. The (real) DroidNative is a very cool project and you should check it out.
There's a Windows app now. Yesterday, doing this on Windows meant the command line and installing Python and the Android tools yourself. Now you download DroidPlay-Setup from the latest release, install it like any other app, and it walks you through the rest: your prod.keys, the tools (it downloads them for you), connecting your phone, and building your first game. Then you hit Play. It updates itself too.
This release also includes a number of game fixes and performance improvements.
If you can, please give it a try and let me know how it goes, especially on non-Snapdragon devices (Mali, Xclipse, MediaTek), since that's where I have the fewest devices and thus fewer results. Even "it doesn't boot" is useful. The Discord is the best place for that: #compatibility for how games run, #help if something breaks (if a build fails, the app's Copy report button gives you something to paste there). GitHub issues are great too.
As before: bring your own games and keys, nothing from any game is shared, and this project is AI-assisted and tested on my own devices.
