App works great. There's a few Sega CD games that don't play, but other than that, no complaints. "Switch" ready with my Odin and dock, so that's nice. Plus, the original frame rate option kills any potential input lag you may experience on specific Android devices.

I'm assuming active development is over, considering Sega/Mega CD support is still VERY broken, the litany of requests for 32X support haven't even been acknowledged, and like the other .emu apps, button mappings won't clear at all. I either have to remap, or delete all app data. This gets 1 star rather than 2 or 3, because you're falsely advertising CD support, and charging money. Screw you, for chasing me back to retroarch.
