# Status
In development, 2D games are working like [Sonic Mania](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAHoNzhHyCU), Undertale, Momodora and others...
# Why?
The project started as a fun project. Due to limited free time, it will probably take a while before shadPS4 is able to run anything decent, but we're trying to make small, regular commits.
