Reply to @SuperSnekFriend@tsundere.love EdBoatConnoisseur@EdBoatConnoisseur@loli.church (2026-09-19 11:22:12) @SuperSnekFriend@tsundere.love okay i did more reading, lepton is a valve fork of waydroid, in a similar vein to how proton is a fork of wine, waydroid development is one of the developments of all time... but steam is betting on it rather than using money to get a deal with genymotion to use their emulator in steam so maybe they hired developers that are confident on making lepton work where waydroid found hurdles, being a waydroid fork it needs to run on wayland or at least a wayland kiosk (weston, cage), the android game needs to have an x86 build OR arm translation layers need to be added as compatibility tools to lepton (libndk and libhoudini) in similar manner to how some libraries are added to per game proton prefixes, if the game is NOT in steam it will require manual installation of the apk through ADB...

in other words at least right now it is not possible to just click on settings and click add a non steam game to play android games with steam, but maybe in some years.
