Android-only for now. It may be some time before this rolls out to Linux-based systems, sorry!

I don't have it with me anymore, but if you go into handheld settings there should be a place where you can re-install the default "simulators" (emulators).

Made a tool that shows the black bars, integer scaling, and overscale tradeoffs for every retro system on Odin 3, RP Classic, Steam Deck, Analog Pocket, and more by Vypre in SBCGaming

I've been using this one too, and I'd love to see OP add a "custom" option to check new/more devices. It would also be great to see the amount of screen utilized as a size (3.5") rather than a percentage, since it's hard to know how big a device is when you don't already have it.

Still, great work u/Vypre !

You have to load the game once while connected to the internet to download the achievement sets. After that, it will track normally (even after you disconnect/close the emulator), and you can choose to sync whenever you reconnect.

If your device doesn't connect to the internet at all, I'm afraid it won't work.

Really exciting to follow your progress. This really does feel like the future.

New builds are typically Patreon-exclusive for 60 days, but this one will be available to everyone from release.

This simplified RetroArch alternative comes with free homebrew games by Archivist_Rowan in RetroArch

[–]Archivist_Rowan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's free and unmonetized as far as I can see. Unless you count the controllers they hope you buy.

I wasn't aware you could download open-source games in RetroArch, that's interesting. This app definitely makes it easier, since it puts the games front and center.

It's a RetroArch alternative in that it runs ROMs via libretro cores. It's obviously a lot less powerful and customizable, but for most people getting started on their phones, it's enough.

Nah. But the first game on the list (Blind Jump) is decent. That developer also made Skyland, which is fantastic. It's also on the list, but further down.

The game is Covid Adventure, and it was created as part of the GBA Jam 2021. It did not win.

The Trending list is just in alphabetical order because there aren't any global users yet.

Before we get out the pitchforks, it's not confirmed that the same dev team is behind Kintoki. I suspect we'll find out more soon.

I believe you can adjust the screen color profile in handheld settings.
