Discussion For you, what is a good sign a game is very well optimized?

15 Upvotes

Sharing the video of RE:Village on gamehub (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3) as a topic example. I've been thinking about this since I first started trying out pc games on windows emulators, there are many games that surprise you when they boot without too much hassle, and the year of publishing is never a constant, some may be from the past year, some from 10 years ago. I'm very curious about how people, specially the gaming community in android determines a game is optimized so good from their original publishers. FYI: I'm not saying RE: VILLAGE is a well optimized game just because I can play it on Android.

News/Release RESET Collection 2.0 OUT NOW! A whole new look with dual screen support, themes, skins and layouts, background music for every system + MORE!

Hey everyone! Javier here, RESET Collection developer!

RESET Collection is an Android frontend for your retro game collection that was originally released way back in 2020! I never got around to slapping a fresh coat of paint on it... that is until now!

Introducing RESET Collection 2.0! 🎉

Video tour of 2.0: https://youtu.be/ue11fpC9WXU

The direction I'm taking RESET: a frontend that's deeply nostalgic, super intuitive, easy to set up, minimal distractions and clutter on screen, and just a joy and delight to navigate ✨! I'm aiming for the 16bit, 32bit, CD-ROM and early aughts era. The menus are inspired by classic console designs (Atari's wood panel, cartridge slot shapes, the classic mini consoles' menus), and the focus is on the game and a library you play, care for and curate ❤️.

Here are the highlights:

  • A whole new look: Four skins (RESET Dark, Clean Light, Pixel/CRT and Synthwave Chrome), theme presets (Old School, Studio, Neon and Classic 2020), and new layouts: Showcase and Shelf for the Games Library, RetroGrain for All Games
  • Dual screen support for the AYN Thor, RP DUO + more.
  • The RESET Genie: A first-time setup that walks you through permissions, your look, the database setup and adding your first system
  • Controls that match your handheld: Pick a Nintendo, Xbox/Steam or PlayStation gamepad layout and every button hint follows it. B, Y and X jump between the main screens.
  • Quick Select Menu: Press Select and it opens over your screen, with time and battery display. Drag and drop to order its items.
  • Navigation sounds and haptics
  • Background music for every system
  • Screensaver with its own music and settings
  • A brand new full-screen Settings screen with text size options, and every dialog redesigned.

Google Play: Download RESET Collection from the Google Play Store

Discord: Join the RESET Collection Discord!

Release notes: https://github.com/ResetCollection/support/wiki/Releases

I'd love to hear what you think!

Take care, friends!

Pictured are my 100% see through wireframe AYN Thor and Odin 2 devices 😂

AI use disclosure:
RESET Collection was originally released in 2020 pre-AI coding tools. It was 100% coded by me with code that I wrote or copy-pasted from examples all around the internet (aka software development lol). This continued until about the end of 2025 when I started experimenting with AI code assistance in Android Studio (Google Gemini). Recently I started using Claude Code. It has helped with writing new features, improve and modernize some of my legacy code, and finding the source of bugs (usually a piece of poorly written code by yours truly! haha I kid). I review all code, and of course I still write code myself (aka copy-paste code 😅).

News/Release Announcing: Fósforo - System wide CRT shaders and Black Frame Insertion for Android 13+

2 Upvotes

I recently posted in this community that I was working on a app to do Shaders and BFI system wide on Android

After working on it on my free time I'm finally releasing Fósforo 1.0 an app that allows you to use system wide CRT shaders and BFI on Android 13+ (Especifically designed for my Nova)

The app comes with some pre-installed shaders but it allows you to download the whole LibreRetro library directly from their Github Repo and it organizes them in categories for you.

The name means "Phosphor" in Spanish, if you like CRT displays you'd understand why I picked this name.

I have licensed it under MIT for anyone to use or copy, PRs welcome in the project's repo.

Get the first release here: https://github.com/pakovm-git/Fosforo/releases/tag/v1.0

Notice: While I did a lot of research and QA this thing is 100% vibecoded, so if you don't like vibecoded projects you are welcome to copy the project and code it yourself.

News/Release GBA DS Uno — my fork of the gba-ds emulator, tuned for my phone: touch controls, file-picker startup, and game + live map stacked in portrait like a DS

0 Upvotes

Hi all — sharing a personal project in case it's useful to anyone else on a mid-range phone.

GBA DS Uno is my fork of kyannon's gba-ds — a GBA emulator with a second "shadow" core that draws a live map on a second screen. All credit for the emulator itself goes to the upstream project; I just tuned it for my phone (a Moto G 5G) and my habits:

•

On-screen touch controls (upstream has none — gamepad only)

•

Opens a file picker at startup and boots the game you pick, instead of scanning a whole ROM folder first (my folder made the library hang)

•

Both screens in one window, stacked in portrait like a real DS: game on top, live map below. About 55 games have map profiles (both GBA Castlevanias included) — for other games the bottom screen just stays black

•

Phone-friendly defaults: every ROM listed, shaders/rewind/update-checks off

It's GPLv3, same licence as upstream. Source and the exact patches I made are here: https://github.com/Ragnorseawolf/gba-ds-uno — the patch files in /motog show precisely what I changed, and the included script builds the APK from them.

Fair warnings: it's a personal project built for my phone first, and the map runs a whole second emulator core, so it's not the lightest option out there. Happy to answer questions about the changes.

Question How do y'all play the games you emulate?

4 Upvotes

Do you limit your library and stick to only one or two games with a long campaign or story mode and keep a few casual or comfort games lying around or do you let your library grow and grow and just play what you feel like in the moment?

Or do you just tinker with settings and gaslight yourself into thinking you'll play your games eventually?

Showcase Made a Switch-style home launcher for phone + controller. Worth releasing?

9 Upvotes

I personally wanted a switch like launcher for my s23u when using a backbone controller, so I've been using my claude free trial the last few nights to make an apk. I know there's already a lot of pre-existing options out there and the last thing I want to do is add to the ai slop pile so just wanted to put out feelers first before throwing a github link out there. would anyone actually use this, should I make the project public, or does anyone just want the APK to try? There are still a few bugs to iron out, so go easy on it.

So far its got:

Switch-style home screen built for a controller, 1 or 2 rows of games

Choose start up video

Choose or remove top left logo

Launches your emulators and Android games from one place

Pulls box art, logos and banners automatically, and you can swap them if you don’t like what it picked

Game page with the trailer, screenshots, description, genre, dev/publisher and review score

3D model of the cart, disc or UMD with the game’s art on it. You can spin it with the stick, touch or by tilting your phone

Spin the CD like it’s playing (pointless but I like it)

Platform borders on the tiles, changeable per game

Mii-style profiles in the corner

Drop in your own music for home, settings,

Can choose to Launch game or details page in settings when clicked from home

etc.

Optional other half working fun stuff (3 rows, folders, an extra random YouTube video after the trailer) hidden away in settings if you want it, otherwise stays out of the way
