Very sad news. Thanks for all you did.

maintaining an open-source game emulator has really perverse incentives. users do not care whether your code is good or clean or properly tested. if a horrible hack gets a popular game running, they will plagiarise your WIP patch, make their own build of it, and distribute both…

…at which point it becomes very tempting to just move to a completely closed development model, where we only publish code that is complete enough to land on trunk. and already we are like half of the way there with touchHLE, but it's tempting to go all in. perverse incentives!

touch!

I wanted to do it on perfect time, but better late than never: #touchHLE now supports the original "Cut the Rope" game!

The touchHLE website has been redesigned. Sadly, it is no longer built using Dashcode, but the new design is a lot more practical.

A new project is trying to preserve click-wheel iPod games appleinsider.com/articles/24/11… #Apple

There is now a FAQ (frequently asked questions) page on the touchHLE website.

The touchHLE app compatibility database now has a table summarising how many apps have each compatibility rating. We're very close to having 150 apps with at least three-star compatibility!

This is a casual reminder that no one of actual #touchHLE developers are having Telegram channels about #touchHLE. Anyone claiming so is an imposter. Don't believe anything they claim.

New addition to the touchHLE copyright policy:

This is a big threat to the touchHLE project and all emulators and software preservation projects on Android more generally. Please do what you can to push back against this, while you still can.

The touchHLE team is proud to announce the release of touchHLE v0.2.3! Compatibility has grown from dozens of games to over 300 apps with 3+ stars support 🎉 github.com/touchHLE/touch…
