The file size is due to the music files on mp3. The actual game is 8MB. To play this on retroarch you have to use the core included, a modified genesis plus core, else the game will play a fake low res "mockup". So go to your retroarch cores folder, backup and delete your genesis_plus_gx_libretro.dll and replace it with the one included with the game. After that just load content and find the game .bin.

Download from Repo​

 
I am able to get the game working on my Retroid Pocket 4 Pro with the new Android cores provided a couple of days ago. Thanks for the update!
 
Finally, this scam disguised as a game got dumped, in honor of all the people who never got to play it, I bet is not even that good, probably a lame clone of SOR games
 
I finally managed to get it work on a R36S!
I give the steps:

- Download "R35S ArkOS.rar" from https://archive.org/download/not_paprium_retroarch
- Extract the file.
- Insert your SD to your computer.
- Put "paprium.bin" (the Rom) and the folder "paprium" (with the *.mp3 files) to your "megadrive" folder on the "EASYROMS" partition.
- You need to access the hidden partition (Linux) in order to modifiy the cores.
I personally used this software under my Windows https://www.paragon-software.com/es/home/linuxfs-windows/
- Once on "root" partition, go to "home/ark/.config/retroarch/cores"
- Paste and replace the file "genesis_plus_gx_libretro.so"
- Do the same in the folder "home/ark/.config/retroarch32/cores" (THIS is the step I was missing!).
- Boot the game once, get the 8bit fake game. Restart (select + start). The real game will finally boot!
 
Thanks i got it running on my R36S and R36H android and Pc now woohoo!!!

Hi,
Can you, please, tell me exactly how did you manage to run it on a R36S ?
You download the "R35S ArkOS.rar" and you replaced the *.SO file?
And then, just choosing that emulator and core from the options?
TIA
 
hey spike can you update and upload the core in there for switch,playstation vita and also ark os they will also update for 3ds coming next..

psp failed testing not working, it seems the hardware not powerful enough.

file is here this include an updated paprium file

Try Total Commander apk, its a file manager. Copy the Android core here in the repo with it to your retroarch core folder, root of your tvbox
The version on google play seems incompatible with my android TV, only my phone shows up, id there an older version or something?
 
i've tested this and it's surreal seeing this game actually working on an emulator, it's not a masterpiece by all means but it's a decent game despite the kind of people the devs are, my only complaint is that i don't like using retroarch so i hope someone makes it work outside of it

Really I like Retroarch it has so many options.
 
Check paprium-genesis_plus_gx_libretro_android_all.7z i just added I think there is now.

Do anyone know of a 'genesis_plus_gx_paprium_libretro (Linux 32bit)' file available? I ask because I'm running an arcade cabinet with an Odroid XU4 and that's a 32 bit ARM, not 64.

I also want to know if this rom can be played on an Anbernic console or R36S
I tested on an Anbernic 35XX H running muOS Pixie, it seems to be playable (I did not have a chance to play all the way through and for whatever reason the Original mode does not save my progress) if you swap out the default genesis_plus_gx_libretro.so core file with the one from the Updated Paprium RetroArch Core zip from the one that is labeled "R36S" oddly enough. On muOS, it should be easier to change the *.so files on the SD card with muOS was installed on. I haven't found a way to keep both original and the Paprium core yet but I did back up my original Genesis Plus GX with muOS. I hope the method that haojiezhu found for Windows can work on an Anbernic Linux handheld.
 
Thanks for the cores. Played through level 1 and it seems pretty mid.

This is misterbuh. Signing out.
Yeah it's pretty ass. Only kinda cool things are you can use Bully as an OTG to keep up the punishment but often the hitboxes aren't right and you whiff the Bully attack while they're knocked down and seamlessly being able to combo and back attack is nice I guess but SOR 2 and 3 are just by far and away better.
 
Does anyone know if someone is working on a version without the 400+mb of mp3 files?

If you mean proper full emulation, then no. It would require dumping stm32 code for reverse engineering of extra chips which are responsible for decompressing and processing of music date from game's rom.
