Pojawiła się pierwsza, a w zasadzie już druga, publiczna edycja nowego emulatora handelda firmy Atari - Atari Lynx, dość fajnej zabawki, którą zapamiętam przede wszystkim przez jej niesamowity i nienasycony głód na baterie paluszki;)
Emulator jest jeszcze w fazie prealpha, sporo tytułów nie działa jednak myślę, że to kwestia czasu - za jego powstanie i rozwój odpowiedzialny jest Waldemar 'Laoo' Pawlaszek z grupy demoscenowego New Generations.
Nowa wersja dodała GUI w obecnym momencie możemy już spokojnie wybrać archiwum lub inaczej podporządkować klawisze, fajnie:)

Autor' comment
I'm working on SDL2 migration at the moment, but meanwhile I've managed to diagnose the nasty bug producing audio glitches.It was due to the fact, that current emulation is audio driven - I call emulation loop to render given number of samples. But Suzy sprite blitting could not be interrupted which resulted in compressing the time occupied by Suzy and loss of generated samples. Nevertheless I've fixed it and added two commands in Audio menu - to save WAV file and VGM file, as VGM now officially supports Mikey.
Those two changes are in 0.6.1 release which includes also 32-bit build. Before I'll manage to setup an automated build on the GitHub infrastructure all builds are done on my personal PC. So just in case: antiviruses I am using do not recognize any problems on my machine, but Virus Total does report some issues and only I can offer now is my word that they are false positives

Felix 0.6.0 19/12/2023
A new Felix release after two years and ten days!
Many changes and improvements with respect to debugging and stability.
Known issues:
- Awesome golf and Scrapyard Dog hangs,
- audio/video synchronization has a defect resulting in crackling,
- few debugging features does not behave as flawlessly as they should.
This is the last (major-ish) release before much anticipated migration of the rendering engine to something multiplatform (likely SDL2).

Felix 0.4.3 04/11/2021
- single instance feature can be disabled in configuration file in c:Users[user-name]AppDataLocalFelixWinConfig.lua and is disabled by default
- fixed a math bug that resolves the issue with apfel_2a.o
Felix 0.4.2
- Suzy math corrections
- Palette corrections
- EEPROM support
Felix 0.4.1
This is a first public release.
Keep in mind that it's inherently "pre-release" and isn't production ready before reaching version 1.0
