A gameboy emulator that only plays Pokemon Blue, in ~70 lines of c++.
See the technical write-up.
Plays Pokemon Blue (and Red).
Only builds on Linux and macOS AFAIK.
$ make
On macOS, you'll need to create a save file too (just the first time):
$ make rom.sav
Put Pokemon Blue in rom.gb, then run:
$ ./pokegb
The save file is written to rom.sav.
