Cut the Rope Classic — PS Vita

Unofficial so-loader port of Cut the Rope (classic cardboard-box Android build) for PlayStation Vita.

Based on soloader-boilerplate (TheFloW so_util + FalsoJNI + vitaGL).

Legal: This repository contains only the loader / homebrew scaffolding.
You must provide your own legally obtained Android game data (libctr-jni.so + assets).
Do not ask for or share copyrighted game files here.

Status

Boots classic Android 1.1.1-era libctr-jni.so (no Seasons / Unity remaster)
Portrait game letterboxed on Vita (960×544)
Touch, SFX, BGM, menus, and level loading work on current builds
Intro videos are skipped (playback finishes immediately)
Title ID: CTROPE001

Requirements (device)

PS Vita / PSTV with HENkaku / Ensō
kubridge kernel plugin
libshacccg.suprx (e.g. via ShaRKBR33D)

Install (players)

Build or download CutTheRope.vpk and install it.
Create ux0:data/ctr/ and place:
- libctr-jni.so (from a classic ARMv7 CTR APK, e.g. paid 1.1.1 lib/armeabi/)
- assets/ folder from that same APK
Launch Cut the Rope Classic from LiveArea.

Suggested layout:

ux0:data/ctr/
  libctr-jni.so
  assets/
    *.png / *.jpeg / *.ogg / *.xml / …
  loader.log          # written by the loader

Build (developers)

Host tools

VitaSDK softfp with VITASDK set
Required libraries via vdpm (vitaGL deps, vorbis, zlib, …)
MSYS2 / bash on Windows works; see rebuild.sh

Compile

./rebuild.sh

Produces soloader-boilerplate/build/CutTheRope.vpk and copies it to ~/Downloads/CutTheRope.vpk when that path exists.

CMake options live in soloader-boilerplate/CMakeLists.txt (DATA_PATH, title ID, app name).

Notes

Classic 1.1.1 uses nativeTick(long ms) and nativeResize(w, h, isLowMem) — not the later ZJNI / float-tick API.
loadImage is implemented in the loader (Android BitmapFactory stand-in) and feeds imageLoaded.
Sound is mixed with sceAudioOut (BGM @ 44100 Hz).
Prefer Release builds for playable performance (rebuild.sh uses Release).
