For the past 6 months or so I scoured the internet in search for a copy of GBMac v1.3.1 - a gameboy emulator for 68K macs. As opposed to all other gameboy emulators for 68k macs, this one is extremely performant and ran quite a lot of games at a high framerate even on my SE/30. There is a version (1.2.6b) uploaded to Macintosh Garden however that one is the "freeware" version, with less games supported and without the ability to save game progress. Version 1.3.1 was only released to people who purchased it and it has never been archived anywhere.
Macintosh Garden's listing also mentions that the app is still available for sale, however the developers e-mail address isn't available anymore (any email you sends receives a bounce-back mentioning that no such account exists). I've tried searching for an updated email from the dev without luck.
As such, I'm putting a $500 bounty to be paid via paypal to the person who can find a working copy of gbMac v1.3.1 version and upload it to Macintosh Garden. If by any chance someone knows how to get in touch with the original developer, let me know. I'm willing to throw quite a bit of money towards the dev to release it as freeware.
