🕶️ A view of "Keystone Kapers", a platform game in which the protagonist (Officer Keystone Kelly) - wearing a bowler hat, tries to catch Harry Hooligan before he can escape from a department store. We see him on the ground floor, and behind him on the 1st level, an escalator leading to the 2nd floor.

📜️ "A libre ATARI 2600 emulator" 📜️
The Atari 2600 Video Computer System (VCS), introduced in 1977, was the most popular home video game system of the early 1980's.
Now you can enjoy all of your favorite Atari 2600 games on your PC thanks to Stella!
Stella is a multi-platform Atari 2600 VCS emulator released under the GNU General Public License (GPL). Stella was originally developed for Linux by Bradford W. Mott, and is currently maintained by Stephen Anthony. Since its original release several people have joined the development team to port Stella to other operating systems such as AcornOS, AmigaOS, DOS, FreeBSD, IRIX, Linux, OS/2, MacOS, Unix, and Windows. The development team is working hard to perfect the emulator and we hope you enjoy our effort.
Stella is now DonationWare. Please help to encourage further Stella development by considering a contribution.

Atari 2600 Emulator for SDL & the X Window System
Stella is a portable emulator of the old Atari 2600 video-game console. You can play most Atari 2600 games with it.
Stella's features include:
• emulation of Atari 2600 joysticks, keyboards, paddles and driving controllers using the host system's input peripherals;
• emulation of trackballs, joysticks, booster grips, driving controllers and the Amiga Mouse using the host system's mouse;
• support for real Atari 2600 controllers using the Stelladaptor, 2600-daptor or 2600-daptor II;
• support for real Atari 7800 controllers using the 2600-daptor II;
• support for the speech portion of a real AtariVox device;
• support for Supercharger single-load and multi-load games;
• emulation of CRT TV features, including texturing, colour bleed, RF noise and phosphor burn-off (requires OpenGL).
An extensive debugger is included, with the Distella disassembler.
Note that this is not isee systems' STELLA modeling, simulation and analysis tool.
🌍️ Wikipedia:
Stella is an emulator of the Atari 2600 game console, and takes its name from the console's codename. It is open source, and runs on most major modern platforms including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Stella was originally written in 1996 (and known as Stella 96) by Bradford W. Mott, and is now maintained by Stephen Anthony.
Stella is written in the C++ programming language and thus is highly portable. The emulator supports all Atari 2600 cartridge bank switching schemes and has support for nearly all Atari 2600 titles. Support is included for NTSC, PAL and SECAM in 60 Hz/50 Hz varieties, including autodetection of those formats (based on the number of scanlines generated in each frame).
Stella emulates most Atari 2600 peripheral devices, including standard joysticks, paddle controllers, the Atari Video Touch Pad, the Atari Keyboard Controller, Atari Indy 500 Driving Controllers, the CBS Booster-Grip controller, the CX-22/CX-80/AmigaMouse trackball controllers, the Sega Genesis controller, and the AtariVox and SaveKey controllers. Stelladaptor and 2600-daptor support allows real joysticks, paddles, and driving controllers to be used, and support is also included to access a real AtariVox device plugged into a serial port (and actually generate sound from the AtariVox device). Stella does not yet support the cassette-based titles designed to work with the Coleco KidVid cassette player but does have support for titles designed to work with the Starpath Supercharger and Spectravideo Compumate.
Stella includes many facilities for homebrew developers, including an extensive built-in interactive debugger and disassembler supporting breakpoints, read/write traps, etc. Other major features include Blargg TV effects, a cheatcode system, support for user-defined palette files, state loading/saving, hardware-accelerated rendering and effects, event remapping, and an extensive built-in, multi-platform user interface (including a ROM launcher frontend).
Stella uses the TIA emulation core from 6502.ts, a collection of emulators for MOS 6502 based systems written in TypeScript and runnable from a web page.

Cet émulateur vous permet de jouer sous Linux avec des ROMS téléchargées sur internet.
