kat5200

Purpose: kat5200 emulates the Atari 5200 and Atari 800/XL/XE computers so users can play games from those systems on a personal computer.
ROMs and BIOS: The emulator does not include game ROM images or BIOS files; users must obtain and configure them separately.
Downloads: The downloads page lists Windows installer and portable builds, a macOS disk image, a Linux Flatpak, an Android/TV APK, and a source zip for version 1.0.0.
Input: The emulator supports game controllers, keyboard and mouse input, and allows multiple input entries per emulated function.
Per-game settings: Users can save different input profiles and assign them to games in the Launcher.
Analog controls: The Simulate Analog option helps games that rely on controller axis positions when played with a keyboard or digital controller.
Graphics: A release update added support for precompiled shaders from the libretro project.
Configuration: Version 1.0.0 changed configuration storage to TOML text format and added per-ROM profiles.
Setup: The initial setup offers ROM directory scanning and options to configure mouse-as-trackball, mouse-as-paddle, and two-stick games.
Compatibility note: The maker says the Android version is not in the Play Store and must be sideloaded.
Support: The maker asks users to report bugs or suggestions through the issues list or by email, as described in an older release note.
License status: A 2008 release note states that kat5200 became open source.
