Released a new version of Notan, a SDL-like library made in rust
I'm just glad so many of the SDL 1.2.x-era games dynamically linked SDL so I can use sdl12-compat to stick them on top of SDL 2.x's non-modesetting fullscreening and PulseAudio support.

US NGO Consumer Reports also reporting on C and C++ safety for product development.
Thankfully, most people don't statically link SDL 1.2, so it's possible to use sdl12compat to rebase them on top of SDL 2.x's non-modesetting fullscreening support, among other things.

Apple 2 Emulation (via Ports)
I've been determined to get the only system not on the device working in some way. The biggest issue to the Apple II systems not being present is that all the emulators are not written in SDL2 and the only Apple II emulator written in SDL2 (shamusworld) is far from perfect. So I tried my hand at something: What if I could wrap SDL1.2 to SDL2 against linapple? My brother showed me on github sdl12-compat https://github.com/libsdl-org/sdl12-compat. Amazingly enough, we have results. Now it's not going to be as functional this way like having RetroArch to configure things, but I have over twenty Apple II games pre-configured with controls thus far.

You need this compatibility library and you can drop it into the "lib" folder in the game files.

How I got the Psychonauts 1 native port to run

Is Wayland ready for gaming?
Really old Linux games based on SDL1 can also work on Wayland by using the SDL1 on SDL2 wrapper in combination with a recent SDL2 build (I've been successful with Psychonauts this way, and it even solved some weird windowing problems with the game)

Raycasting
If you don't care, you can use a third party app for graphics execution (like this for SDL2). Though, the "in termux" part only is for write code.
