This project implements a GameBoy Color emulator. It is still a bit buggy, but it does run quite a lot of games now, which is cool!

This is implemented in C++ and has python and SDL2 build dependencies too. To build it cleanly, proceed as follows:

$ git clone https://bitbucket.org/kushou/nebula.git
$ cd nebula
$ mkdir build-dev
$ cd build-dev
$ cmake .. -D_DISPLAY_BACKEND=SDL
$ make

And then you can execute a ROM with the following command:

$ ./nebula --rom /path/to/rom

Here are some good links to documentation that would help you understand the inner workings of a GameBoy and write your own emulator.
