GoBoy v0.5 introduces a number of changes that improve the accuracy and performance of the emulator. A new APU emulation implementation now correctly times the audio with the cpu emulation, resulting in much more accurate audio playback.

GoBoy v0.4 introduces some significant performance increases - seeing up to a 2x fps increase since v0.3. It also adds a dialog prompt to select the rom without running from command line, and now outputs a MacOS app which can be run standalone.
