higan emulates a number of classic video-game consoles of the 1980s and 1990s, allowing you to play classic games on a modern general-purpose computer.
This repository includes the source-code for stable and WIP releases of higan, starting during the development of v068. It also includes community-maintained documentation.
Basically,
apart from .gitignore files,
anything in the
higan,
hiro,
icarus,
libco,
nall,
ruby,
or shaders
directories should be exactly as it appeared in official releases.
Everything else has been added for various reasons.
History before v068 has not been recorded in Git, but the bsnes history kit is an attempt to reconstruct the development history of bsnes/higan. A pre-built example of its output is available as the bsnes history repository.
