Browser runtime

Self-hosted EmulatorJS 4.2.3 and the Mupen64Plus-Next libretro core. No BIOS is required. Runtime licenses and exact source records accompany the runtime source record, frontend license and core license.

New website features

Journey, route, equipment notebook, local save controls and state backups were adapted for GoldenEye from the COSOM Castlevania interface. All save identities and guide content are separate.

Verification scope

The original October 30 release skipped gameplay testing at the owner’s request. A separate October 31 local renderer comparison checked only the observations recorded in the rendering receipt. Native save/reload, complete-campaign, physical-controller and cheat-effect acceptance remain unverified. This release requires the pinned standard nonthreaded WebGL2 core; the original ROM and both retained core archives are unchanged.

Renderer repair · 1.0.1

A sequential local comparison reproduced missing menu backgrounds and difficulty labels with the original legacy core. The bundled standard WebGL2 core rendered the copyright screen, mission-selection menu and Dam difficulty labels legibly using the same unchanged USA cartridge.
