In case some of you don't know, Game Native is Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) that just went officialy to the Google Play Store and lets you play your Steam library games (even ones made for Windows) on Android - as long as the hardware can handle the game at hand, of course...

A couple more smaller importance curiosities I have...:

Does anybody know if it is easy to play on-line without having to install any Mods?

Could anyone tell if there's an active player base in Brasil - or perhaps a gamemode where internet latency is not such a huge issue...?

Thank you so much in advance any and everyone who may try to help!

First off I want to say I’m a big fan of GameNative and I will keep supporting it, because it’s current value and potential are huge.

That being said, I’ve recently encountered two instances of losing a save game. One for Slay the Spire 2, and another for Lorelei and the Laser Eyes. Not going to lie, both were quite painful, and they have been putting me off on using GN and playing these games, which is undesirable.

I don’t know what the exact causes of these failures were, but from my armchair it seemed like there was no proper check done whether a game already had a save, and it started (and saved) a fresh state.

I also have a Steam Deck, and the Steam client itself seems to have a very rigid process trying to prevent this failure mode. It would be great if something like that was in place for GN as well. Just my two cents.

That being said, this is already a wonderful project, with wonderful people on board, so thank you so much.

The updates were steaming rolling, but now its almost been a month and no update

Batman: Arkham City running on the POCO F6 Pro through GameNative! Testing the Steam version of the game at 1600x720 ultrawide resolution with a smooth 60FPS experience.

Can a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 smartphone really handle one of the best Batman games at 60FPS? Here's the performance test.

good day,

I'm playing The Binding of Isaac on Galaxy S25 Ultra and the fps hits 120 regardless of the limit I set.

I tried adding a variable "DXVK_FRAMERATE" and "DXVK_FRAME_RATE" with value set at 60 but none worked.

I'd really appreciate more battery life than 120fps ;-;

Can the POCO F6 Pro handle the Steam version of Dark Souls Remastered through GameNative? In this test, I'm running the full PC version on the phone at 1600x720 ultrawide resolution and getting a stable 60FPS experience.

The complete GameNative configuration used for this test is shown at the end of the video, so you can see exactly how the game is configured.

Since I don't want to spend a lot of time configuring stuff (already did that on PC/Steam Deck often enough), I'm wondering how many Games have a "known config" that works for the RP6 - I feel like the RP6 or RP5 are some of the most owned and used Android Handhelds so I have high hopes but I thought I'd ask before buying one

Since 12gb RAM isn't an option, 8gb is the only thing left but I've heard that the RAM doesn't bottleneck the RP6

My main intention is to be able to run GameCube and PS2 Games + modern indies from Steam - Silksong, Mina the Hollower, Rain World, Darkest Dungeon, some Visual Novels, maybe some lower end 3D Games (not lower end but I think KCD1 would be the biggest and most demanding game I'd want to play, rather interested in stuff like Brush Burial or Little Nightmares-like games)

I am very much fine with having to tweak something here and there or having the option to tweak for better battery/better performance etc. but if I have to spend half an hour everytime I want to get a new game running, it's not worth it for me

I am somewhat well-versed with PC settings and also some emulation settings on PC but even when it comes to drivers on Android I am absolutely clueless - I think I saw a 20 minute long video about how to do your settings on GameNative so that's something I'd be willing to watch as well.. Putting in 5 hours of work, not so much

Cheers yall, thanks for the replies!

Does anyone know how to get GTA 4 running in game native, im using the AYN thor Max 🫡🫡🫡

Hi, I am trying to run dave the diver from ankergames on odin 3.

Got black screen and 0 fps.

Any help? I tried known config but still doesnt work.

Anyone figure out a fix for the abysmal microsd card loading speeds when using gamenative? I see people using gamehub to install the games first on the sd card, then loading them in gamenative for its better performance, but the gamehub versions ive tried dont allow you to install to the microsd card. Can someone share what version they are using? Anyone got some other fix/workaround?

With the recent full release of Field of Mistria I've been having issues booting it up on GameHub which I was previously using and worked fine. But with the update GameHub doesn't let me play so I decided to try GameNative with no luck either, only showing a black screen and a cursor. Cant always play on my computer because I live away from home for collage. If anyone is willing to give some advice it's greatly appreciated 🙏

Title. I know I can copy the game to my phone and then add the exe as a non Steam game. But I would prefer to add it as my Steam copy, for achievements and such. GN is iffy when it comes to downloads on my phone even at max download speed, so I'd like to be able to copy the game files directly from my PC if possible. Please let me know if it's possible to do and for GN to recognize it as my Steam owned game, rather than adding it as a separate non Steam game. Thank you!
