agbplay is a music player for Linux, with Terminal interface for GBA ROMs that use the most common (mp2k/m4a) sound engine format.

The code itself is written in C++.

Features

• ROMs can be loaded and scanned for the songtable automatically.
• PCM playback works pretty much perfectly; GB instruments sound great, but envelope curves are not 100% accurate.
• Basic rendering to file done, including dummy writing for benchmarking.

User guide

A quick tutorial by Sanqui can be found here.
