TamaTool is a cross-platform Tamagotchi P1 emulator relying on the hardware agnostic Tamagotchi P1 emulation library TamaLIB.
It goes beyond a simple emulator. It is an exploration tool with features such as a real-time RAM editor, an assembly language debugger, an I/O monitor, and a sprite editor. These tools allow users to experiment with the Tamagotchi P1 ROM and explore its inner workings.
TamaTool also lets you save and restore your emulation state, making it easy to back up and share your Tamagotchi experiences.
Changes from the original project:
- The Tamagotchi "shell" view doesn't exist.
- Memory and other debug functions cannot be used in the Vita version.
Installation
TamaTool being an emulator, it requires a compatible Tamagotchi P1 ROM called rom.bin in its folder. This ROM is not provided, for your information, the expected ROM format is 16 bits in big-endian per instruction (the actual E0C6S46 instructions are 12-bit long).
Instructions:
Controls
Square/Cross/Circle or Left/Right/Center - Tama's A/B/C buttons
Start - Save the state (saves to a saveN.bin file)
Select - Load the state
R - Speed up emulation in a cycle of 1x > 10x > unlimited
(Due to the Vita's clock speeds, it may not appear to speed up. By using an OC plugin such as PSVshell and changing your clock to 500MHz, the results are slightly more noticeable.)
