Term Boy: A Game Boy emulator for the Linux console

Term Boy is yet another Nintendo Game Boy emulator, with one difference:  It uses ANSI escape codes to draw each 'pixel' in the terminal.  It's a fork of gomeboycolor, a Game Boy emulator written in Go.  Currently sound is not supported and the controls are not customizable, but I hope to fix those problems in future releases.

Only ROMs for the original Game Boy will display properly, since the Linux console doesn't support enough colors for the Game Boy Color.  Your default console font must also be 8x16 pixels and support the Unicode left half block character(▌) for the screen to render correctly.

This is my first package, so any feedback is appreciated!


Available in the AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/termboy/

See the readme on GitHub for the controls:
