Click a game’s name or icon in the library to open a dedicated game page. Play, Build/Rebuild, remembered ROM locations, update checks, integrity tools, previews, achievements and verified package details now live together on that page. Back to game returns there from gameplay; Back to library returns to browsing.

Catalog entries open their own pages without downloading anything. Download / inspect and creator approval remain explicit steps. Package drops open the verified package review on its page, and cancelling or returning to the library discards the staged review.

Validation: 188 Rust tests passed; Linux desktop checks exercised installation, building, gameplay, navigation, catalog pages without automatic downloads, remembered per-game ROMs across restart, multiple ROM slots, native file drops, achievements, video previews and an existing port’s gameplay/web export. Formatting, Clippy and public-site checks passed. Linux and Windows x86_64 CLI/GUI binaries were built; the Windows CLI version check passed under Wine. Native Windows GUI behavior was not tested locally.

Verify the archive with its accompanying SHA-256 file and follow the included INSTALL.md. Restart any running app after replacing its files. Windows source compilation continues to use the matching Linux compiler through the documented WSL 2 setup; playback uses the native app. Player ROM files and signing keys are not included.
