Javatari

Javatari is a free Atari 2600 emulator designed for the Web. Users can load cartridges in a browser, with ROMs opened from local storage, iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox or web links. It runs in browsers tested with Chrome, Firefox and Safari, and can be installed as a WebApp on iOS, Android or desktop for offline play. Savestates can be exported and shared. Playback controls include adjustable speed, pause and frame-by-frame advance; display tools include resizing, fullscreen, screen capture and debug modes. Customizable joysticks, joykeys and touch controllers are available, with haptic feedback on mobile. NetPlay lets multiple users connect to and control one virtual console over the internet, although it does not work on Apple iOS because required WebRTC technologies are unavailable there. Performance depends on network quality. A JavaScript API supports ROM loading and console control, and games can be embedded in webpages or launched with a Javatari page link. The project repository identifies the software as licensed under AGPL-3.0.
