Droid-CPC emulator for Android

Jun 102013

Kokak, who already released a CPC emulator for Series 60 phones some years ago, released a new Amstrad CPC emulator for Android. It should run with full-speed on nearly all devices, has a very nice feature set and even supports hardware gamepads and hardware keyboards. You can get it for 1,79€ in the Google Play Store.

So, after CPCDroid and AndCPC, this is the third Amstrad CPC emulator for Android.

Features:

Virtual Joystick on touchscreen (analog or directions keys)
Virtual keyboard
Hardware gamepads (XB360, Moga, etc.) with customable controls
Hardware keyboards
Snapshots (you can save / restore the state of the CPC, so any game can be saved / loaded)
OpenGL renderer

FMS released a new CPC emulator for Android. Like AndCPC it is based on ZX81s PSPCap32, but doesn’t need a physical keyboard connected to the Android device, because it features a virtual keyboard. Be sure to visit FMS website, download CPCDroid and don’t forget to report bugs to support the development of the emulator.

Features of v1.5.1:

Screenshot support
Snapshot support (5 slots per loaded disk name)
Disk A & B Support
Autodetection of start file inside loaded DSK image (the program should start automatically after insertion of disk if not disabled in settings)
Comments for games
Cheats
Keyboard remapping (saving, loading, etc..) to ease use of CPC Keyboard with SDL touchscreen virtual buttons
Joystick remap (as in keyboard remapping)
Settings support (for changing emulator parameters as rendering mode, skip fps in slow or older phones, etc…)
Configuration menú can be used without losing CPC emulation state
Text virtual keyboard can be used in the emulator (press “AB” virtual key on screen upper left side)
Onscreen virtual keypad with 6 buttons (configurable in the main menu) for controlling CPC programs

Currently this emulator is only supposed to work on devices which have a physical keyboard connected to the device.
