About this APK

Hyperspin is a game by Shieldcade in the Arcade category, listed since at least May 2018. It includes native code only for ARM 32-bit, so it won't run on 64-bit-only phones such as recent Pixels.

It asks for 3 permissions, 1 of them sensitive: read shared storage.

What's new in v0.1.8

There are only 2 minor changes. 1. Properly sleeps in the background when an emulator is launched (this should help battery and potential lag) 2. Changed default path for retroarch.cfg to /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.retroarch/files/retroarch.cfg (was previously /data/data/com.retroarch/retroarch.cfg). This should unify the config files (when retroarch launched standalone) and make it R/W. Pointing to /data/data was a hspin app bug. SORRY!

Hyperspin APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the Hyperspin APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Unknown. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is f3c32010f3255c21d1caf49c1f936738.
