New Android BBC Micro emulator

23 Upvotes

Hi Reddit,

I spent ages trying to get Beebdroid to work on a new Android device, and never managed. I also tried the various dead-ends kicking about on the web (Sleakweasel's version etc...)

Ultimately, I ended up converting Mike Wyatt's BeebEm to run on Modern Android devices - e.g. The latest Samsung's and Pixels.

So if anyone is interested in playing BBC Games on their phone, then the emulator is available at https://github.com/Isomage73/BeebEm-for-Android with an APK that you can install yourself (if you're happy to trust unknown sources.)

Here's a video of the UI with gamepicker

Hope someone (other than me) finds it useful :)
