For quite some time, this has been my favorite C64 emulator. It's stable enough to run most software, with a single exception (e.g., the KCS Power Cartridge). It is actively developed and receives regular updates. And the shader support is fantastic, something that VICE is years behind on. The UI could be better/more modern and logical, but overall, especially due to the shader support, it is by far my favorite C64 emulator!

Very interesting project! Will it run on a Raspberry Pi 5 (Raspbian OS / ARM64)...? I can't find any Information on this...

The most intuitive C64 emulator bar non. Very user friendly interface with loads of features to take it to the next level.

My favorite Commodore 64 emulator for Windows by a huge margin. I love the UI and how easy it is to use. It runs everything greatly. It also launches instantly unlike Vice, which takes good 10-20 seconds to load.

Easy to use with a simple setup for both C64 and Amiga. I’ve noticed significant progress in the emulator over the past year.
