Initial Beta Release (GameNative+)

GameNative+ is an independent fork of GameNative optimized for sideloaded PC game collections, container isolation, and automated community compatibility configuration on Android.


Downloads

  • GameNative+ APK: Download GameNativePlus-v1.0.0-beta.apk below.

What’s New

  • Side-by-Side Coexistence (app.gamenative.plus): Independent package ID allows installation alongside official GameNative without overwriting saves or containers.
  • Automated Community Config Detection: Automatically scans custom game folders for steam_appid.txt or emulator .ini definitions, pulling down device-verified Wine/Box64 profiles and Proton fixes for sideloaded games.
  • Isolated Containers: Sideloaded game environments live in separate containers to keep configurations clean.
  • Custom App Identity: Features custom branding and adaptive launcher icons.

Setup & Folder Structure

Place games inside your local CustomGames/ directory:

CustomGames/
└── YourGameTitle/
    ├── YourGame.exe
    ├── steam_appid.txt      <-- (Recommended) Numeric Steam App ID
    ├── coverh.jpg           <-- Horizontal hero banner
    └── coverv.jpg           <-- Vertical capsule poster

Edge Cases & Overrides

  • The "Spacewar (480)" Issue: Generic emulator files default to App ID 480. If wrong presets apply, create a steam_appid.txt containing the actual Steam App ID in the game's root folder.
  • Resetting Presets: If a community config prevents booting, go to game Settings > Reset to Defaults.

Tested Environment

  • Hardware: Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (Snapdragon 8 Elite, One UI)
  • Verified: Celeste (verified automatic preset matching, container deployment, and controller pass-through)
