Hey! Nice work!

I managed to build and run it on MacOS! :)

Just in case someone's having troubles building the project on macos (or is willing to add macos support ;) ) here's my build.zig. And yeah, I couldn't build it with the latest compiler but it worked like a charm on 0.13.0!

const std = @import("std");
const GPA = std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator;

var gpa = GPA(.{}){};

pub fn build(b: *std.Build) void {
    var allocator = gpa.allocator();

    const target = b.standardTargetOptions(.{});
    const optimize = b.standardOptimizeOption(.{});

    const exe = b.addExecutable(.{ .name = "ZigNES", .root_source_file = b.path("src/main.zig"), .target = target, .optimize = optimize });

    const imgui = b.addStaticLibrary(.{ .name = "imgui", .target = target, .optimize = optimize });
    imgui.linkLibCpp();

    imgui.addCSourceFiles(.{
        .files = &[_][]const u8{
            "libs/cimgui/cimgui.cpp",
