Super Bug Advance 1.31 released

Super Bug Advance 1.31 (Game Boy Advance): 11 August 2025
This is "Super Bug Advance" aka "GBAArcadia": a port of a subset of the
Ami/WinArcadia 34.73 emulator to the Nintendo Game Boy Advance platform,
for the purpose of emulating the Super Bug 1 & 2 and Capture games.
The emulator has been optimized for speed and size. The emulation is not
as comprehensive as that provided by Ami/WinArcadia, but everything needed
for adequate emulation of the included games is present. Features could be
added back in from Ami/WinArcadia if desired, to enable support of other
games.
The program was written in C using devkitPro 62. Source code is
included. It was tested on VisualBoyAdvance-M 2.2.2.
Changes since V1.3:
Summary:
* Miscellaneous improvements and bug fixes.
Details:
ported from visual ham to devkitpro.
removed autofire support (not very useful and confusing for most users);
now button B is the same as button A.
now either L or R can be used to pause, and holding both down will change
games.
improved noise emulation.
fixed: some CPU instructions were setting flags wrongly.
