DishSoap: an Android port of The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai

DishSoap ports the Xbox 360 game The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai to Android using managed code decompiled locally from the owner's game copy. Repository code provides MonoGame platform shims, an on-device content importer, audio decoding, controls and save support; building from source also requires manual XNA-to-MonoGame edits.
