Since many years I am dreaming of playing Serious Sam: The Second Encounter, on my mobile device (Android) and I am happy, that this is now possible thanks to the developer - aarcangeli.

Here is a link from where you can download the APK file - https://github.com/aarcangeli/Serious-Sam-Android#

Let's just proceed with the installation:
6880
6881

Important! Select "Done", and not "Open", because it is necessary to copy the files from the PC version (preferably Steam version)
6882

We create a folder named "Serious Sam", in the main SD directory and we copy the following .gro files:
SE1_00.gro
SE1_00_Extra.gro
SE1_00_ExtraTools.gro
SE1_00_Levels.gro
SE1_00_Logo.gro
SE1_00_Music.gro
1_04_patch.gro
1_07_tools.gro
6883

Now we can start the game. And here is our favorite BOMB! AWESOME!
6884

The resolution is good 1280x720
6885

I am disappointed from the lack of multiplayer - NETWORK (2 of the menus Network and Split Screen are inactive, for the 2nd it is understandable) But I am thankful, that I have the game!
6886

Select Single Player and then New Game, to start your new game.
6887

The graphics returned my happiness! I love it when it is classic, dynamic....
6888

The console is active - very good. I personally turn off the visibility, of the chat messages.
6889

This is how the most serious one looks like during gameplay!
6890

The controllers are comfortable, when you count the fact that, I don't play Android games.
6891

After the installation and the testing of the game I came up with an idea, to make an experiment. I copied the Player0.plr from where previously in the menu (PC version) I had set thirdperson as default and set my favorite crosshair. I made a savegame in the last level in Split Screen and I put it in the folder savegame/player0.
Part of the effect is visible, on the previous images.
6892

Practically it is possible, to play in multiplayer and I don't know, why they have turned off this option. I hope in the next version, that they will unlock it.
6893

That was it from me... I wish you a pleasant game!

I installed myself the rework of - Skyrimus
I found it here (https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=942755&st=940#entry89242564)

He has separated the APK file for FE and SE versions of the game.
6894

In the options there are more menus (the previous one had only the Android Port Settings). Some functions are still inactive, probably they are incompatible.
6895

I noticed, that the Android version of Serious Sam is based, on the mod Fix42. The command GoToMarker lead me to this thought.
To be exact, it wasn't the only factor... but anyway.
6896

This is how the entire arena is skipped - without effort, without fight. Ah, this lazy generation!
6897

I accessed the hidden menus
6898

I went out of my way to turn on my Gamepad, but some buttons, like shooting, jumping, crouching are inactive for me and I tried to load, the already available to me ones from the PC version. They are visible, but it didn't work.
6899

If there is something new - I will share it. I hope above everything else, that we will have servers soon. To play with someone, while I lay down on some field, or while I travel with the bus or the train. Hehe... Dreams! Dreams!
