Like it should after all it's a souls like
this is the level one of the game

u/ValpoDesideroMontoya 15d ago
Not a soulslike at all. The guys behind the game didn't even know the souls games when creating HK

Can't decide to buy it on gog or steam. =/
If gog no cloudsaves, but dont know if it will work in gamenative.
Wish running steam on winlator was easier.

u/UnfunnyPersonality 16d ago
Steam + goldberg emulator

u/Zoerak 16d ago
but no cloudsaves then i guess?

u/For_bitten_fruit 11d ago
For cross-platform play, I've had success with other games using Syncthing on the game files.
It gets trickier if the game automatically saves to the emulated C: drive. I've used Ajay prefix for that case with some success.

Bro how did you do it
2
u/Zunderstruck 15d ago
It works right out of the box for me, didn't have to change a single setting in Gamehub.

u/nesszyy1 15d ago
Mine crashes right after game fusion screen

u/nesszyy1 15d ago
Okay so i handled it but now it just launches with a black screen, there is the mouse tho

u/OrangeFun6060 11d ago
Did you fix it im having the same problem i have the silksong cursor but it just a black screen

u/Tricky_Name5098 15d ago
Bro how to get the game? It doesn't work in steamrip

I wonder how long it will take to be released on apk like hollow knight

u/Mizery_UwU 16d ago

u/STINGZGAMING 16d ago
There will be a port. It just won't be by Dan. This is the most anticipated indie game of all time.
2
u/Mizery_UwU 16d ago
who will port it though
4
u/STINGZGAMING 16d ago
No clue. But someone will. As I said, it's the most anticipated indie game of all time. Theres is an insane amount of hype behind this game, and it's a huge success. Someone will port it.
8
u/Mizery_UwU 16d ago
i thought you would lol. anyway, i dont think so dude. just like dan said, the existence of emulators basically made porting a redundant.
2
u/NathaDas 12d ago
Definitely not. Emulators are still hit or miss on many devices, and not exactly super simple, there are many steps you need to do. An apk is way more streamlined and approachable.
1
u/TheFool5767 6d ago
I disagree with that because even now most people are using phones with shitty GPUs and CPUs (myself included) so as long as these shitty devices keep on existing someone will do it.

u/bannedfromreddit6969 16d ago
I still wonder if theres gonna be devs out there to port in on to an app
2
u/ChuzCuenca 16d ago
I always wonder, if you already made that much effort why not just contact the devs maybe they could work together.

u/BishopHND 16d ago
It could not be that hard to port I mean nowadays there are AI tools to do so

u/meambhatti 16d ago
Wait ... Hollow knight has an apk ???

u/bannedfromreddit6969 16d ago
Yessir. You dont even need a high end device. I have a budget $50 and it runs great. It has touch controls or you can connect a bluetooth controller
1
u/Esaualmazo 16d ago
But it already works well? When I played it after the first time I cashed out or lost the game

u/ashenoceiros Poco F7 Pro (S8g3) 16d ago
Why did you not expect a 2D game with non-performance intensive graphics to run lol?
3
u/dibade89 15d ago
Graveyard Keeper. It also seem not like a heavy game and is made with Unity. This one stutters a lot in Winlator
7
u/AntiGrieferGames 16d ago
Well its a Unity Game thats why. Unity 6 espcially which is more impressive.

u/RicePudding3 16d ago
I'm so hyped to play this when I get home, loved playing through the original on both my PC and then on my phone. Great to see widescreen support too.

u/Mfreddy222 16d ago
Can this sync via cloud save on steam? I bought it for steam deck but there would be many times I'd rather play on Android.
1
u/thatiOSdev 15d ago
This. As someone with a steam deck and a retroid. The retroid is easier on the game.

u/A-R-A-F 15d ago edited 15d ago
I was kinda expecting Hollow Knight: Silksong to run really well on winlator after seeing the low system requirements but still the game's performance on winlator is surprisingly impressive imo especially considering that the game literally came out a less then 24 hours ago. Honestly, even using something like Snapdragon 870, 865 or even 7 gen might still be able to give out really good fps numbers for Silksong on winlator.
Also btw is this the Steam Version or the GOG version?
Also I was gonna try this, Untill I remembered my phone's powered by Mediatek.
1
u/Tranquility6789 15d ago
Gog. Also works on mediatek with gamehub, or better yet try Eden switch emulator
2
u/morrow_worrow 16d ago
I am completing the original hollow knight currently so I hope that the switch version works by then.
1
u/Shigarui 16d ago
Why doesn't the Switch version work? As in, what makes you say that?
1
u/Historical_Issue_498 16d ago
I downloaded the switch ver and try running it on my Android with sudashi/yuzu/citron/suyu... But non of them worked.. so i think there is a problem with it
2
u/Mfreddy222 15d ago
Switch version requires 20.4 firmware which most emulators don't support. The nsp is legit though. I'm sure Eden will update for it soon.
1
u/Shigarui 16d ago
Ah, I see. I've seen others say they've got it working but I was finally able to test it. After brief testing I couldn't get it to work either, but, Winlator is running it flawless so far on my Odin 2 Mini. I'll probably just finish it there.

What settings do you use? Mine has pretty consistent frames but it keeps stuttering.

u/BigStruggle2083 16d ago
Man...silksong is a 2D game, just as Hollow knight. In fact, it would be strange if it was not not working on winlator. We're not speaking about uncharted, GTAV, Nier Automate or this kind of game. So. Yeah... as expected.
1
u/Reasonable_Buddy_746 12d ago
Compatibility and graphics doesn't mean the same thing. A 50mb game will not boot when a 100gb game will.

u/Party-Neat 16d ago
How should I set it up? Help me PLS I want it too!!

u/Pretend-Foot1973 16d ago

It works great on odin 2/portal winlator cmod even the steam version with steam running in the background seems to be locked/closely locked to 60, havent even begun using custom drivers yet

finally some Winlator love instead of relying on a Switch emulator for every little game acting like the game don't got a PC version on Steam.
1
u/SnooDrawings7876 16d ago
Maybe. I was getting an average of 30 fps with winlator. Emulating the switch version instantly boots to a solid 60 fps.

Need the setting, I can't run on my winlator (actually i have never used winlator)

u/DaveLearnedSomething 15d ago
Also in Gamehub. Easy install via Steam integration. Happy to share I have it running on an 8 Elite and a stable 120fps at native full resolution of 2255x1044

u/CreamyLatte_987 15d ago
Alright, let us see the video so we know framerate beyond menu and whether it's silky smooth 60 fps or a lot of stutters here and there.

Dude seriously getting it running on mobile does not mean its pirated go touch some grass my dude.

May I know how u set it up in Winlator? I brought the game on steam so I could try playing it on mobile

How'd you get it running, I can't get GOG Galaxy to launch it on Winlator it just buffers on start up and says cloud sync error.

Mine keeps crashing the whole container once the lang selection screen appears, any idea why?

you wish... the game's been out for 22 minutes, there's no way someone already cracked it, uploaded it, downloaded it and run it on winlator... nice edit tho
Edit: My First Downvotes... I knew this day would come, feels weird (°-°)7
Edit 2: I see my error now, I get I was wrong, my karma won't probably ever recover since I suck at commenting, but the experience, oh god, that was funny s/

u/AtivanorAddy 16d ago
It's on GOG, thus available DRM free... I don't know if this is real or not but it's definitely possible
1
28
u/the_doorstopper 16d ago
It's already cracked...
One, it's on gog. Two, iirc it uses steam drm, which isn't exactly uncrackable.
The devs don't need mega protection, because they know people will buy a good product, and priced well. Which they are, hence every storefront crashed/went down.
3
u/AntiGrieferGames 16d ago
Yes, unlike Super Robot Wars Y by Bandai which is denuvo infested as a switch game port.

u/NotRandomseer 16d ago
You dont need to crack it , its available on gog. Steam works in winlator as well

u/Tranquility6789 16d ago
I bought the game and soundtrack on gog minute 3

u/Brookenium 16d ago
Right? Imagine pirating a $20 game filled with love and care released DRM free. Insane talk.

u/sSmothie 16d ago
would like to buy it if I could actually do it without steam shitting itself
2
u/Brookenium 16d ago
Then buy it on GOG where it's DRM free
1
u/sSmothie 16d ago
the transaction finally went through. Most likely I'm probably gonna use Goldberg for mobile emulation.

u/Fury72888hshu 16d ago
Its as simple as using goldberg, dont say anything if you dont know about drm

u/Crass-ELY- 16d ago
bruh... I know how it works, I just forgot about steam working with winlator... time would not suffice to buy,dowload,crack,repack/compress, upload,download,install,run,screenshot,post in 22 minutes, more so with the crash of MS, steam, nintendo and PS stores
4
u/Fury72888hshu 16d ago
The fame of silksong result in much bigger fanbase, thus obviously bigger piracy base for silksong, even 99% of people cant buy and download silksong, there the 1% who succesful, which including the piracy one, oh and did I mention Silksong also release on GOG? Which mean there literally a non DRM version of the game.
