This community is unofficial. Let me know if a developer of RetroAchievements wishes to have a Lemmy community.

RetroAchievements is a service that adds achievements to old games! From Gameboy to PlayStation 2 to the TurboGrafx-CD, regular and challenge achievement sets are available across myriad games and game hacks.

The achievement system is baked into specific emulators, and requires nothing more than the proper ROM or ISO and your user credentials to start earning.

I did a web app to create overlays for your RA streams

For the streamers that use retroachievements I did this web app so you don't have to install anything on your computer. Just login with your username and the web API key and choose from the catalog (a bit short for the moment)

The link is https://overlays.makmonty.com/ and the code is hosted here https://github.com/makmonty/cheevos-overlays

As the disclaimer says, all communications are between the web and the RA API, and there are no cookies. Only the local storage of your browser is used to store preferences, so your data is safe.

Let me know if you find it useful, or if you'd like more features, or if you find bugs!

Afterplay.io is a web-based retro gaming emulator with support for SNES, GB, GBC and GBA (Premium includes support for even more consoles including N64, PS1, and DS).

The latest update just added retroacheivements support. As far as I know, it’s the only emulator that supports them on iOS that doesn’t require sideloading.
