Project mention: Unicorn: Lightweight multi-platform, multi-architecture CPU emulator framework | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-19
Project mention: Rise: Accelerate the Development of Open Source Software for RISC-V | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-31Maybe then they can help us with the Capstone[1][2] disassembly engine auto-sync (automatic synchronization from the LLVM TableGen files) effort[3]. ARMv7, ARMv8/9, PowerPC are nearly finished, and MIPS in in near-term plans. Nobody stepped in for RISC-V yet.

I'm working on a game for Amiga (another 68k-based platform) and settled on ZX0 to decompress assets on the fly: https://github.com/einar-saukas/ZX0
I was originally using LZ4, but I switched to ZX0 after learning that it can do in-place decompression, which means I don't have to allocate separate memory for the compressed data. I'm very happy with the compression ratio, and decompression of large assets (~48kb) only takes a few frames on a 7MHz 68000.
Also of note is LZ4W, included in Sega Genesis Dev Kit (and discussed in the comments section of OP's article), a variant of LZ4 that only uses word-aligned operations. That makes it much faster on the 68000, which can struggle to efficiently handle 8-bit data. More info here: https://github.com/Stephane-D/SGDK/blob/master/bin/lz4w.txt
Project mention: Bit random but does anyone know how possible it is to get this look within Stella? [Pallete/TV Effects]. | /r/AtariEmulation | 2023-06-06Not Stella, but the Clock Signal emulator does a great job of emulating the TV effects. The 2600 emulation isn't quite as good as Stella, though.
Project mention: Test suit for some emulated CPU like 6502 and 68000 | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-06
Project mention: Show HN: Mutable.ai – Turn your codebase into a Wiki | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-08Nice! I’d be interested to see how it handles https://github.com/rosco-m68k/rosco_m68k , it’s a mixed software / hardware repo, with a lot of code in assembler and C (for an old platform). Might be a challenge?
Project mention: NeXTstep source code leaked and now on Github -- not just the ROM as per the repo name | /r/Next | 2023-05-09
NOTE:
The open source projects on this list are ordered by number of github stars.
