Important Info :bangbang: :rotating_light: :

ROM Files can be named what ever you want, but they must end in either ".b" or ".bin": Tamarush only supports .bin based roms, however there is a system in place to automically rename any .b files into .bins when they are found, so you can still use .b roms like normal.
Only 5 Save files, per ROM, will be stored at one time (Not including backups): For each rom, only 5 save files will be saved at a given time, with new save files always overwriting the oldest one
ROM's Save folders, where the save files are stored, are based on the ROM's name: Your save files for each rom, and the folder they are placed in, will be named after whatever is the rom is named.

Credit :memo: :

Tamalib: TamaRush's emulator is heavily based off of Tamalib, just built from the ground up to only work in unity/BRC
TamaTool: Extra features in TamaRush like LCD colors, speed, save states, were based on features from TamaTool, which is a stand alone emulator also built on top of Tamalib
BRC-CODE-DMG: After getting stuck on the rendering pipe line between BRC and the emulator, I looked at this project and figured out Delta Transform was my fix. I also used this project to figure out how to wire up audio from the emulator, into BRC.
