Surreal64 B5.5 - Community Edition

Latest edition of Surreal64, by and for the community

Surreal64 stands on the shoulders of giants. Along with the very talented core and plugin developers, many people have poured their hard work into this project over the years. Starting from the original teams release of Surreal64 1.0, which was later then picked up by freakdave, after which Team XXX carried the torch for quite some time. At which point, I was able to give Surreal a little attention and carry it a little further. Since then, freakdave and weinerschnitzel have been the torchbearers, working hard to push the envelope.

Together, we've managed to really polish this emulator package into something we're all proud of and enjoy using. This has also opened the doors for many new GUI features that have been taken advantage of by some very skilled graphic artists. Not to mention all the hard work on the configuration files.

Without further ado, we bring to you - Surreal64 CE B5.5
