this is a work-in-progress chip music player (currently) for the .dmf format.

features

  • supports Sega Genesis, Master System, Game Boy, PC Engine, NES and C64 (for now, with more systems coming soon)
  • clean-room design (zero reverse-engineered code and zero decompilation; using official DMF specs, guesswork and ABX tests only)
  • bug/quirk implementation for increased playback accuracy
  • accurate emulation cores (Nuked, MAME, SameBoy, Mednafen PCE, puNES and reSID (hahaha!))
  • open-source. GPLv2.

dependencies

  • CMake
  • SDL2
  • zlib
  • JACK (optional)

SDL2 and zlib are included as submodules for Windows and macOS.

mkdir build
cd build
