Tromi (ANDROID port)

A old-fashioned but modern block-stacking game. Made with love by mycophobia.
Ported to Android (mobile and TV) by SweetSea with on-screen control (with some necessary changes)

How to play

⚠️ There is no Android build (aka APK file) right now. If you see any pre-built APK files on the internet. Please be aware

For mobile

Install

  1. Download Tromi from Releases tab and place tromi_mobile.love to somewhere you can easy to navigate
  2. Download love2d engine (You should get 11.5 or above)
  3. Install love2d engine (extra steps may require, you can read this article from WikiHow if this is the first time for you to install app from APK file)
  4. Now, press Home (or back to app launcher), you can see two icons: LÖVE for Android and LÖVE Launcher. You should use the LÖVE Launcher to launch Tromi

Launch

  1. Launch LÖVE Launcher, an file picker will appear
  2. Navigate to where you put the bare tromi_mobile.love
  3. Pick the file and enjoy

For TV

⚠️ Before telling you how to, I have something to tell you.
I don't really encourage you to play Tromi on TV if you don't want your electricity bill to skyrocket as if to punch you in the face.
If you can, plug in a keyboard or gamepad and play the original Tromi instead of this one.
You can still use the remote, but remember that the remote is not designed for gaming. And if you lose before the speed reaches 20G, I earnestly beg you not to throw the remote at your precious TV and then curse me because your performance is worse than when playing on the keyboard.

Install

  1. Install this file manager on your TV: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alphainventor.filemanager. After installing you should see this icon
  2. Opening the app, click on Access from... (network/other devices/etc...)
  3. Now, on another devices, download both Tromi and love2d (like on mobile)
  4. Transferring 2 downloaded files to TV
  5. Install love2d app
  6. (Only first time), open the tromi_mobile.love. When the file manager asks for opening the file as what. Choose Other, then pick LÖVE for Android and click Always

Launch

Navigate to where you put tromi_mobile.love in the File manager (the one you downloaded from the link in Install part), just opening and Tromi should be launched.

Differences from original Tromi

This is required, to follow the used license (GNU GPL v3)

  • No differences in gameplay
  • Files will be saved into Android/data/org.love2d.android/tromi_mobile instead the location where the game files in
  • Add simple-button module, made by SweetSea
  • All UIs are touch-able
  • Add on-screen buttons
  • Replaced icons for 3 direction buttons (Left, Down, Right)
  • Add a special pre-made keybind for Android TV (only supports TV models have their remote has numerical area (0-9))
  • Changes the way to input secret code to activate Pentominoes modeTo insert the left arrow, tap on the left, so does to right arrow.
  • Add a loading screen (this need to be updated later)
  • Update binser library, this fixes some weird bugs related to saving
  • Replaced old Cambridge's config module with the new one inspired by "the sequel of Techmino"s SETTINGS module

TODO

  • Add a way to export replay for Android > 11
  • Revert bitser with binser (if and only if I can make it works)
  • Design a new on-screen buttons skin (the current one is come from C₂₉H₂₅N₃O₅, I am aware that it's not fit to Tromi's design language)
  • (Low priority) Design a new menu screen

License (GNU GPLv3)

Please read COPYING.txt for more information.

A small note about the music:

Only mycophobia right now having the permission to music from Jerry Martin, I haven't got.

I sent an email about this issue (not mentioning about this game), but I haven't got any replies from them (I checked both my main inbox and spam too, nothing)

Both me and mycophobia can't give you a sub-license if you ask. What can I do is suggesting you to send an email about this (there is a chance that you may not receive any replies, but it's better than do nothing)
