Zomdroid

Zomdroid is a launcher for Project Zomboid on mobile Android devices.

[!NOTE] This application is not developed by The Indie Stone and is not affiliated with them in any way. Zomdroid ships no part of the game — no code, no assets, no binaries. You supply your own legally owned copy. See NOTICE for the full statement, the changes the launcher makes to your own copy on your device, and every third-party component and its licence.

Features

• ✔️ Supports Project Zomboid Build 41
• ✔️ Supports Project Zomboid Build 42
• ✔️ Supports Gamepad support
• ✔️ Supports Lua mods
• ✔️ Supports multiplayer: join, host a game, run a dedicated server (v1.5.0)
• ✔️ Supports Keyboard + mouse support

System requirements

• Android 11
• 6GB of free RAM (usually achievable on devices with at least 6-8GB of total RAM for b41, 8GB+ for b42)
• 10-15 GB of free internal storage for downloading and installing the game

Roadmap

Both roadmap goals are done: device compatibility (v1.4.x) and full multiplayer (v1.5.0).

• Expand GPU and device compatibility
• Add full multiplayer support (v1.5.0)

Prebuilt binaries and JARs

Prebuilt binaries and JARs are located in the app/src/main/assets/bundles folder,
except for Box64 and GLFW, which are built alongside the Zomdroid APK.

All Zomdroid dependencies—except Box64 and GLFW—can be either:

• Built from the zomdroid-dependencies repository
  (Mesa, LWJGL, Assimp, JNIWrapper, GL4ES, zomdroid-agent), or
• Downloaded from official sources (FMOD, standard GNU/Linux libraries, JRE from PojavLauncherTeam, SQLite JDBC)

Supporting Development

This is an independent project. To help keep it going, financial contributions are welcome via Ko-Fi.
