Sorry if this is a question that has been asked before but I could find no information on this game. I am looking to get into some casual speedrunning and thought this game looked like a fun place to start. My understanding is that this game is a bootleg, with that in mind would runs performed on an emulator be accepted? Or would I need a device like an everdrive and play this game on real hardware? Thank you for taking the time to read my post and questions.

Hey BlackDitch! Yes, runs on emulator are totally fine - in fact, the other run currently on the board is done on one. Emulators I can usually recommend in terms of accuracy are BizHawk or RetroArch (the former is what I use myself for various other systems).

Glad to see you're interested in running this game, have fun with learning! If you have further questions, feel free to ask. :)

Thank you for your reply. Maybe someday in the future, I'll have a run worth submitting.
