I am 90 s kid. And NeGeo console was something I always longed for and only ever saw ONE person ever owning!For those who are following...there s a new NeGeo AES console coming out later in the year!I got excited and wanted to remember playing OG SNK games that I loved (Super Sidekicks, Metal Slug, Art of Fighting).I first reached for the amazing OpenEmu native macOS emulator fronted, but found out it did NOT have support for NeoGeo console (FYI I later found out there is experimental support for it)MAME is there, but wanted a nicer macOS fronted similar to Openemu.I ve built plenty of macOS / iOS in my career before (for fun and professionally). So decided to give it a shot. Soon this turned into NOT just a MAME frontend...but I wanted a NICER experience and embedded the amazing libGeoLith emulator library.NeoBox can use either GeloLith (iwht native Metal rendering pipeline) or a frontend for a self-managed MAME installation.So... what was AI generated and what wasn t:* Main native macOS frontend was all hand written code, nothing fancy here. Just native AppKit code * Painstakingly testing as many NeoGeo ROMS as possible and fixing bugsAI-assisted: * Website (duh ;) ) * libgeolith and Metal rendering pipeline. This truly was new terrority for me and I could NOT have done this without AI. I m not well versed in graphics rendering pipelines so it was amazing to me how well Claude was in getting this working!My goal...simple...hoping it funds my purchase of the new NeoGeo AES+ Ultimate Edition console :)That s it!Mac App Store Link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/neobox-neo-geo-player/id676991...
