About Freedroid

Remake of the classic C64 game Paradroid.

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.

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:
