I've wanted to pay FTL on a touchscreen for years

so annoying that it is actually available on iOS but here we have to do this kind of janky workaround

I've heard good things about iOS apps on Android using Cider as a compatibility layer. Like Wine, but for iOS apps. (Similar to an emulator, but it doesn't try to directly interpret the iOS code, it instead translates iOS system calls to their Android equivalents.)

hmm I can't actually find this project, can you link me?

I haven't looked myself, I just found it mentioned in a blog post. Searching now, it sounds like it hasn't been updated in 3+ years, so I guess it's dead?
