Jewel Case 1.0

Jewel Case 1.0

The first release of Jewel Case, a home-screen ROM launcher for jailbroken PS5 consoles, by
SkaRift.

Highlights

• Every system's games in one carousel, drawn as cartridges, cards and discs with their box
  art, on a reflective floor with optional rain.
• Tabs by system (L1/R1), plus Recently Played and Favorites.
• Automatic cover downloads from libretro-thumbnails, matched by file name. Your own art
  takes priority.
• Launches standalone PS5 emulators first (PSXS5, PS5SX2, Mupen64Plus PS5, Porpoise,
  PS5CEMU-HAR, PSFlycast, ProsperoEden, XPSemu, PS5X360) and falls back to RetroArch cores.
• A details screen for each game.
• Settings: rescan games, create system folders, cover downloads, background music (your
  MP3s), rain effect, and more.
• Everything it saves (recent games, favorites, settings, covers, music) is kept in
  /data/jewelcase, so updates never touch it.

Known limitations

• PSXS5 (PS1) and PS5SX2 (PS2) don't accept a game at launch yet, so they open their own
  game list.
