How to Use GoBoy

This app runs in the Windows Terminal, but don’t worry if you’re using Windows—it’s pretty straightforward! If anything goes wrong, GoBoy does a great job of letting you know what’s up.

Setting Up Your Game

Plus, it has some cool debugging features that help curious users understand how emulators function behind the scenes. As for controls? They’re already set up for you! You’ll mainly use the arrow keys along with Z, X, Enter, and Backspace to navigate through your games.

You can cycle through different color palettes by hitting the = sign. GoBoy makes everything super user-friendly while also serving as an excellent example for young developers who might want to try their hand at creating their own emulator.
