Notcher 0.2.0

Download Notcher.dmg below, open it and drag Notcher into Applications. It runs on macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on Apple silicon and Intel Macs.

This build isn't signed with a Developer ID yet. The first time you open it, macOS will block it: go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway next to Notcher. (Or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Notcher.app in Terminal.)

What's new

  • Play your own ROMs. Drag a NES, Game Boy or Game Boy Color ROM (or a zip) onto the notch and it plays right there. Esc saves your spot, battery saves are kept, and controllers work.
  • Library page with the last frame of each game as its poster, and a Continue card on For You.
  • Three homebrew demo games to try before adding your own: click Try the demos in the Library.
  • Built-in emulators that pass the standard CPU test ROMs, running on their own thread.
  • Nine new built-in games, a category launcher, a quit button in the notch, and four new achievements.

Notcher doesn't include any commercial games. Only play ROMs of games you own.
