    ReGBA (Alpha 12) (GBA emu for GCWZ)

    ReGBA by Nebuleon is a Game Boy Advance emulator based ultimately on gpSP 0.9 by Exophase. The project is currently in alpha. This build is a preview for your consideration. Some features are missing and will be coded later. You can also submit patches on GitHub.

    Release notes:

    I have revalidated the optimisations, and it turns out I used the wrong register in some GCW-specific code. I have fixed this, resulting in ReGBA/GCW0 alpha 12. Up to 4% of performance has been restored.

    Download: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106475413/gcw-zero/regba-alpha-12.opk

    Dingoo A320 users don’t need this; they can continue using alpha 10. Alphas 10, 11 and 12 will be byte-identical on the Dingoo A320.

    The last commit that went into this build is commit dc526d2: “GCW Zero, mips/stub.S: Correct the MIPS32 R2 instructions. The instructions used the wrong register.”.

    Tumulus (r24) (A2600 Game)

    In Tumulus by yllawwally you are an adventurer, out to stop the fiends coming from Tumulus. This game is inspired by Golden Axe.

    Release notes:

    Sorry about the long wait, been pretty busy for a while. Did a whole bunch of internal changes. The player won’t notice most of them. However they are required to get the larger bosses on the screen. A new crazy bug was added, when you touch the mummy, you’re character sprite is garbled. It can be fixed by attacking a different creature.
