It adds true 16:9 widescreen in the field, battles, and cutscenes, on-screen buttons that match your controller or keyboard, window, scaling, and color options, high-quality audio mixing, and mods as .ips, .bps, or .ups patches. Version 1.0.7 came out on October 18. The download contains no game art: everything comes from your ROM. 34 of its 86 commits list Claude as a co-author.
