LibertyRecompAndroid 0.5.6.4 Pre-release
released this
2026-10-08 21:15:28 +00:00 | 13 commits to main since this releasePre-release with a fix for Android 10, 11 and 12.
- On Android 10 to 12, the system Vulkan loader reports version 1.1 even when the Turnip driver behind it supports 1.3. The driver check wrongly rejected Turnip because of that, so the app fell back to the stock driver and showed the "needs Vulkan 1.2" error, for example on the Snapdragon 855 / Adreno 640 in #3. Turnip (bundled or imported) is now accepted there.
- Everything from 0.5.6.3 is included: the launcher, the driver picker with .zip import, and the system-driver fallback.
This was tested on Android 13 (Retroid Pocket 5) only. Feedback from Android 10 to 12 devices is very welcome in Issues; please attach
Android/data/com.libertyrecomp/files/last_launch.txt.Install over any earlier version; the game and saves are kept.

LibertyRecompAndroid 0.5.6.3 Stable
released this
2026-10-08 19:49:16 +00:00 | 15 commits to main since this releaseAdds a launcher screen; includes everything from 0.5.6.2.
- The app now always opens on a launcher with the game status and a Play button. The gamepad works on it: the D-pad moves, A selects, B closes and Start plays.
- Vulkan driver picker: choose the bundled Turnip, the device's own driver, or import a driver .zip (AdrenoTools/Turnip packages) through the system file picker. The selected driver is used the next time you press Play.
- The game runs in its own process, so a driver change always takes effect. If you leave the game with Home, the app icon brings you back to it.
- From 0.5.6.2: if the selected driver cannot run your GPU, the app falls back to the system driver. If no driver works, it explains why instead of closing, and it writes
last_launch.txtfor bug reports.
Install over 0.5.6.1 or 0.5.6.2; the game and saves are kept. Details are in INSTALL.md.
