Pizza Boy C

What Pizza Boy C is

Pizza Boy C is an Android emulator for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games. It supports save and restore states, fast forward, and slow motion; the maker describes the free Pizza Boy C Basic edition as ad-free. Games, or ROMs, are not included, so users need to supply them separately. The emulator works with hardware joypads and supports serial link emulation through WiFi or Bluetooth. Players can customize skins, graphics, cheats, palettes, borders, and control layouts, and capture screenshots as JPG images or animated GIFs. The maker says the app is written in C, targets 60 FPS even on old hardware, and uses low battery power. It also says the apps have no user account system, analytics SDK, advertising SDK, or crash-reporting SDK, and are designed to work almost entirely on-device. Google Play lists no data collected or shared with third parties for Basic and Pro. Pizza Boy C Basic costs nothing; Pizza Boy C Pro costs $5.99, paid once.
