# BennuGD is an open-source interpreter for BennuGD (.dcb/.dat) game files,
# running as a libretro core. It is a successor to DIV Games Studio / Fenix.
# Notable game: Streets of Rage Remake.
#
# The official libretro .info file (bennugd_libretro.info) declares zero
# firmware entries. The core loads content directly via bgdi_main() and does
# not reference any files from the system directory.
#
# retro_load_game() in libretro.c:888-911 only reads the content path and
# the save directory. RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY is called once
# (libretro.c:899) solely as a fallback for the save directory, never to
# load BIOS or firmware.
#
# Supported extensions: dcb, dat, exe (Windows BennuGD executables)
# Valid extensions in libretro.c: dat, dcb
# Valid extensions in .info: dcb, dat, exe
notes: |
No BIOS or firmware required. BennuGD is a self-contained game interpreter.
Games are loaded as .dcb or .dat bytecode files compiled by the BennuGD
toolchain. All game assets are bundled with the content.
