Megadev: A Development Kit for the Sega Mega Drive and Mega CD Hardware

AV INTELLIGENT TERMINAL WITH OPTICAL DISC DRIVE

Megadev is a development kit for the Sega Mega Drive and Mega CD hardware. It is collection of utilities, headers, documentation, and examples to make development for these systems less painful than starting from scratch.

Megadev is intended for those who already have some experience with C or M68k assembly programming and have at least a passing familiarity with embedded systems. It is less "friendly" than something like SGDK. This is due in large part to the focus on the Mega CD (which brings with it notably increased complexity) but also arises from a desire for a development system that is more flexible for skilled developers and less reliant on an abundance of external utilities.

Please refer to docs/manual.md for installation and usage information.
