Android Port of Hedgewars

Richard Deurwaarder

Abstract

Hedgewars is a Worms-like game which runs on a variety of Operating systems. At the end of this summer Android too will experience Hedgewars!

Additional Information

The Android port will consist of porting the Hedgewars. The hedgwars engine must be ported to arm in a way that Android/java can communicate with it. The engine relies on SDL and thus SDL will need to be ported aswell.

Because the engine is written in FPC the normal Android NDK will not work and I will have to use Java -> FPC and vice versa.

The hardest part will probably be the interface, because of the small screen Android generally have a nice UI must be build.
