Features
• Easy Installation: Redream needs no installation: download it, extract it to a folder and run it. There is no controller configuration, and no BIOS or flash files are required, because it uses its own replacement BIOS.

• Accurate Emulation: Redream plays over 95% of the Dreamcast library from beginning to end and runs at a smooth 60 Hz even on older desktops. Stable releases are rare, but development builds are published regularly.
• Multi-Platform Support: Redream is available for Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and the Raspberry Pi 4. A premium licence works on all supported platforms.
• Cheat Codes: Redream supports cheat codes, allowing gamers to customize their experience.
• Save States: Redream supports save states, allowing gamers to save their progress and pick up where they left off. The premium upgrade adds multiple save state slots per game.
• Game Library: Add a directory with your own Dreamcast disc images and the games appear in the main menu with automatic cover art. Redream supports GDI, BIN/CUE, CHD and CDI images.
• Multiplayer Support: Redream supports up to four players in local multiplayer games, and the keyboard or controllers can be bound to any of the four ports.
• Controller Support: Most gamepads and arcade sticks are configured automatically when connected, and any button can be rebound manually in the Input menu.
• Customization: Redream allows users to customize their experience with a variety of options, from input binds and an optional original BIOS to graphical settings.
