Been playing the unofficial CD32 port from RGCD lately... fantastic game. I try to support every high profile game which comes to android, and this will be no different. Hopefully this supports keypads like Sonic CD does, because that makes playing the game much better compared to touch-screen controls.

Thanks for the heads up on the control mechanics
Relative touch on this game has been highly praised by beta-testers and players and will surprise many, even very experienced shmup players.
We will ofcourse take your advice into consideration as it is important to listen to players.
Battle Squadron ONE has 4 different control mechanics on iOS and those will also be ported to Android

If everything goes as expected with the Android conversion and it sure looks like it I see no reason for not seeing Hybris on Android devices too
