Marat Fayzullin has updated the port of his ColecoVision emulator ColEm to the Android platform.

Quote:
The new release adds the slow-motion and audible keypad clicks. It also fixes the screen artifacts that sometimes showed up in the accelerated mode, makes keypad more sensitive, and gets rid of random multitouch problems that some users experienced.

Most importantly, if you are an Android Kitkat user, the new ColEm will let you keep your games on an external SD card. As Kitkat prohibits third-party apps from writing to the SD card, ColEm will save your gameplay states in the "ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm" folder on the internal storage (if present) or the private app folder on the SD card. Please note that Android will *delete* all private app folders when you uninstall the app. To avoid losing your saved states, I suggest you manually create the "/sdcard/ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm" folder in the internal storage: it will not be deleted.

• Added slow-motion mode, combined with fast-forward mode.
• Added optional click sound to the virtual keypad.
• Fixed left/top edge artifacts with accelerated video enabled.
• Made a work-around for external SD card use on KitKat!
• If can´t write to external SD card, saving states to /storage/sdcard0/ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm/" title="zur Homepage von Marat Fayzullin" target="_blank">ColEm.
• If ColEm folder doesn´t exist, saving states to /storage/sdcard1/Android/data/com.fms.colem/files.
• Fixed multitouch input in cases when it didn´t work.
• Fixed keypad input sensitivity.
• Fixed fast-forwarding in automatic frame rate mode.
• Fixed rare crashes in gesture detection.
