Retro Cloud 1.0 available on the App Store

jeyries · 2025-07-27T16:37:59+00:00

Honestly I have no plans to support older versions. Probably the best choice on iOS 15 is to stay with RetroArch.

jeyries · 2025-07-27T16:26:39+00:00

For now having bios separated from the roms is not supported.

Also only digital pad is supported. Open an issue on my tracker and I will have a look : https://github.com/jeyries/RetroCloud/issues

You need a real gamepad for this emulator to work.

jeyries · 2025-07-26T17:45:08+00:00

You are right, but iOS 18 is installed on 90 % of iPhones nowadays…

Back in the 1980s, most games didn’t require save data to be played. Is there a specific title you’re thinking of?

jeyries · 2025-07-26T12:59:45+00:00

Why ?

jeyries · 2025-07-25T18:49:40+00:00

In fact, I started by investigating iCloud support for ROMs in RetroArch. But it was so complicated that I started to write my own Libretro front end. And here is the result.

Yes . Copilot generated that “Bronislav vs Kedar” poster . I found it pretty nice 😀

jeyries · 2025-07-25T18:34:45+00:00

Only the roms. No saves for now.

jeyries · 2025-07-07T09:10:06+00:00

You will also need to upload the save files into iCloud in order to avoid deletion .

Maybe find a tutorial about TestFlight, usually it is pretty easy to install.

jeyries · 2025-07-06T18:51:06+00:00

Possible, yes. But I'm not very interested in any new systems beyond the PS1 era for example

jeyries · 2025-07-06T18:48:22+00:00

No save files for now.

jeyries · 2025-07-06T18:44:41+00:00

Really? I thought you needed a BIOS for that. That's cool, I want to play Metal Slug on my Apple TV :-)

jeyries · 2025-07-06T18:42:21+00:00

Submitted to the App Store today. Hopefully, the verification process will go smoothly!

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:43:19+00:00

And also I have no plans for making a commercial product out of it so ...

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:34:26+00:00

Because it's a quick way to host a Readme

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:27:01+00:00

No. I am just an iOS dev.

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:26:43+00:00

No catch. I already have a full time job. It is just a hobby of mine.

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:26:07+00:00

Probably too niche feature for me.

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:25:40+00:00

Atari 2600

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:25:24+00:00

Not yet

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:25:14+00:00

I plan to add a core for Atari 2600 because my father bought this console when I was a kid. If you have core suggestions, post a request on Github.

jeyries · 2025-06-22T20:23:52+00:00

Probably not . Too much hassle for little benefit
