DuckStations

DuckStation is an open-source emulator for the PlayStation 1 (PS1) console. It was originally developed by PCSX-Reloaded, a team of developers who aimed to create a more accurate and efficient emulator than its predecessors. The project was later renamed to DuckStation to reflect its focus on improving the emulation accuracy and performance. DuckStation is written in C++ and is designed to be cross-platform, supporting Windows, macOS, Linux, and other operating systems. The emulator is known for its high compatibility with PS1 games, allowing users to play a wide range of titles on modern hardware. DuckStation also features various graphical enhancements, such as texture filtering, anti-aliasing, and widescreen support, to improve the visual experience. Additionally, the emulator includes a built-in debugger and memory viewer, which are useful for developers and enthusiasts interested in reverse-engineering PS1 games. DuckStation is released under the GNU General Public License, making it freely available for anyone to use, modify, and distribute. The project is actively maintained by a community of contributors who continue to work on improving the emulator's accuracy, performance, and features.
