Gameblabla’s Oswan by gameblabla is a Wonderswan/Wonderswan color, based on OswanJ by bird_may_nike and Oswan by Alekmaul. It can play most, if not all Wonderswan games properly.

Release notes from gameblabla:

New final update to Oswan : This one fixes the crashes in Klonoa, yay ! However, zear and i found graphical glitches in One piece Swan Colloseum during the super attacks, pretty minor but i still don’t know how to fix them. And there’s still Pocket Fighter with the incorrect palette at times. But pretty much every other game works properly now.

Tiled is a general purpose tile map editor. It is meant to be used for editing maps of any tile-based game, be it an RPG, a platformer or a Breakout clone. The program is very flexible, for example there are no restrictions on map size, tile size or the number of layers or tiles. Also, it allows arbitrary properties to be set on the map, its layers, the tiles or on the objects. Its map format (TMX) is relatively easy to understand and allows a map to use multiple tilesets while also allowing each tileset to grow or shrink as necessary later. Ported to Pandora by Canseco.

mGBA is a new Game Boy Advance emulator written in C. The project started in April 2013 with the goal of being fast enough to run on lower end hardware than other emulators support, without sacrificing accuracy or portability. Even in the initial version, games generally play without problems. It is loosely based on the previous GBA.js emulator, although very little of GBA.js can still be seen in mGBA.

Fruit’Y – Playing with edibles is heavily inspired by the Kaiko classic Gem’X, which has been seen on computers such as the Commodore Amiga 500, Commodore 64 and Atari ST. The game consists of two boards of fruits. The left field belongs to a cute tiger who needs to reproduce the right field 1:1 being able to proceed to the next level. Sounds easy?! Possibly it does, at least for the first few levels!
