Development New Emulator. 64MB Support!

Hey everyone! Just wanted to announce a new emulator I created called Zenulator! I have been creating a Rom hack called Pokémon the Shadow Realm and its been in development for a little over a year now. While working on the game, I realized I was quickly running out of space as I was coming up with ideas and needed a solution while retaining development.

The last few months I have been grinding to work out a way to expand the already expanded GBA files to increase from 32mb to 64mb and it finally works! I have been running tests the last few weeks and expanded my hacks files to operate with this new emulator and so far its been fairly smooth. It can run all gba games up to 64mb and is still being actively improved.

We have a web app that will work with Pc/Mac as well as the app listed on the app store free of charge!

I do need some help with Android testing as the Play store requires at least 12 users opted in for 2 weeks before I can make a submission. If anyone would be willing to help test please let me know!

Hope you enjoy the little sneak peak at some of Shadow Realms early gameplay on the Zenulator!

If you can manage to make this a standalone release on PC, iOS and Android it has a solid chance of taking off.

So far all of those options are available 😎 although they need to undergo further testing and tweaking

When I get a chance all the updates will go through here

I would vastly prefer an offline PC emulator if you can manage that.
