Retro Boy is a cycle-accurate Game Boy emulator written in Rust. It uses wasm-pack to translate the Rust code into WebAssembly so it can be played on the web. The web frontend then uses Web Audio API and HTML Canvas for audio and graphics. It also leverages the browser's local storage to persist cartridge RAM data for battery-backed MBC cartridges.

Written in Rust... These three words stalk me everywhere.

You′re walking in the woods

There's no one around and your phone is dead

Out of the corner of your eye, you spot them

(Written in Rust)

They're following you, about 30 feet back

They get down on all fours and break into a sprint

They're gaining on you

"Written in Rust!"

You're looking for your car but you′re all turned around

They're almost upon you now

And you can see there's blood on their face

My God, there′s blood everywhere!

Running for your life (from writing in Rust!)

They're compiling a knife (it′s written in Rust!)
