No BIOS or firmware files required. This core is self-contained.
Fantasy computer for making, playing and sharing tiny games. The libretro repo wraps nesbox/TIC-80 as a submodule; the libretro wrapper (tic80_libretro.c) lives in the upstream repo itself.
Content loaded entirely via libretro data buffer (need_fullpath = false, tic80_libretro.c:340). No call to RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY. No code path reads any file from the system directory. All VM resources (sprites, palette, font, sound engine) are compiled into the binary.
TIC_MODULE_EXT (dynamic scripting plugins) is disabled in libretro builds via #if !defined(LIBRETRO) in tic80_config.h:36.
