RBoy

A Gameboy Color Emulator written in Rust

QuickStart

To use this emulator you will need to find out alsa development libraries for your system on linux. And then you can clone this repository and build it using either the make command or cargo build --release. The generated binary should be placed under target/release. You can copy the executable named rboy or rboy.exe to some sort of binary directory such as ~/.local/bin/ in linux or something under the PATH in windows.

Then you can explore the ability of the emulator by rboy --help. Which outputs
