rvcore: A RISC-V RV32IM Emulator That Runs DOOM
By
Flex247A
Warm and crisp on the edges. A bagel with a bit of bite.
Summary
rvcore is a single-core RISC-V emulator implementing the RV32IM ISA, capable of running DOOM. The project is hosted on GitHub and requires CMake, C++20 support, and SDL3 dependencies to build. It also depends on a separate doomgeneric repository and a RISC-V GNU toolchain configured for RV32IM to compile the DOOM binary that runs on the emulator.
