Kazumi

Predidit/Kazumi · ★ 37.7K

Kazumi is a free, open-source app for discovering and streaming anime online. It does not hardcode websites: sources come from custom rules you write or import — up to five XPath selector lines each.

+62

pt-pc

LoreanXavier/pt-pc · ★ 1.9K

A native PC port of P.T., the 2014 PS4 teaser by Kojima Productions. It is not an emulator: the game logic was rebuilt in C++ and the renderer is written in Vulkan, while every asset (levels, models, textures, sounds, scripts, cutscenes) is read at runtime from your own copy of the PS4 game.

+46

upscayl

upscayl/upscayl · ★ 50.7K

Upscayl is a free, open-source desktop app that enlarges and enhances low-resolution images using AI upscaling models like Real-ESRGAN, running locally via Vulkan.
