What?

(If and when completed!) Yet another emulator for the following. Albeit written using pragmatic-pure* functional constructs.

Why?

• Promised someone to enable them to play Dangerous Dave/Wolf 3D on their macOS.
• Fulfill a long (really) time wish to write an emulator.
• Learn how functional constructs lend themselves to low level programming.
