# mdemu

```

Sonic the Hedgehog (PAL 50) on Wayland (KDE Plasma)

```  

# Motive:

The aim with this project is to provide myself with my own surrogates means of emulating one of my favourite games consoles.

Being my major breakout into the ever-growing, enigmatic world of Reverse Engineering and Low Level Programming, this project aims to showcase my expertise in said field.

# Building:

Built using the ANSI C99 standard

```

git clone

make clean

make

```

the following output should be an executable should ``mdemu`` 

For Wayland support, drag and drop doesn't work in the conventional means

So I have added command line support 

Simply refer to the exe ``./mdemu`` followed by a path to your ROM

``./mdemu /your/rom/path/here/rom.bin``
