Full description

A FreeSoftware (GPL) remake of Andrew Braybrook's classic C64 game Paradroid. The player takes control of the so-called 001 influence device and must clear a freighter of robots by either shooting them or seizing control over them. Seizing control is done in a small logic subgame, in which you have to connect more electrical connections within 10 seconds than your opponent. Freedroid (Classic) was developed by Johannes Prix, Reinhard Prix and Bastian Salmela (originally for DOS, then Linux and Windows, now ported to Android). Additional themes were contributed by Lanzz and Andreas Wedemeyer. For bug reports and comments visit the project page: https://github.com/ReinhardPrix/FreedroidClassic NOTE: The PC game was originally written for Joystick, keyboard or mouse control. The Android version is using pelya's SDL port, which offers on-screen overlay 'joystick emulation'. The GPL sources for this Android SDL port are found here: https://github.com/pelya/commandergenius

What's new

- I've created a demo video that illustrates gameplay and shows the touch-screen controls in action. Click on 'Trailer' in the play store or visit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLryOyqBz1U - Fixed backwards compatibility issues on older Androids (7 and 8) due to libpng zlib version requirement (see https://github.com/ReinhardPrix/FreedroidClassic/issues/40) - plus other minor fixes
