Goemon64Recomp Android v1.0.0
Goemon 64 Recompiled — Android 1.0.0
First public release. A native Android port of Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon via static recompilation (Zelda64Recomp / N64Recomp lineage) — not an emulator. You provide your own ROM; the app never ships game data.
Install
- Download
Goemon64Recomp-1.0.0-arm64-v8a.apkbelow and install it (allow "install from unknown sources" if your file manager asks). - Launch it — on first run, choose a data location and import your own ROM (the original North American Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon cartridge). The ROM is verified and copied into the app's storage.
Requirements
- An arm64 (
arm64-v8a) Android device, Android 9.0+ (API 28) - A working Vulkan driver — tested mainly on Snapdragon/Adreno handhelds (Retroid Pocket 5, AYN Thor). Other GPUs may need a newer or custom (Turnip) driver.
Features
The port
- Native arm64 APK with RT64 Vulkan rendering
- Physical controller support (SDL)
- ROM import through the Android file picker — no manual folder setup or storage permissions
- Fullscreen, landscape-locked
Extras added on top (all optional, in the settings menu)
- Analog free-look camera on the right stick — orbit, zoom (hold R + right stick), per-axis invert, sensitivity, R3 to recenter. The original game has no free camera.
- Autosave using the game's own save system, plus a manual quicksave combo (L + R + Z)
- Swap characters while moving (no need to stop first)
- Cheats — infinite health / money / lives
- Restart to title screen or app menu without closing the app
- Higher internal resolutions (up to 8x) and higher framerates (interpolated, up to your display's refresh)
Notes
This is a 1.0 — there may still be device-specific Vulkan/driver issues. Please report bugs on the issue tracker.
