Neat change, although...	ShadowOne333	2022-08-15	Version 1.1
Good and nice change to make Pokémon Crystal finally work on the Goomba Color emulator, more so that the EZ Flash users can enjoy this title without much trouble. Aside from that (and not to diminish in any extend the work by the author), I have to bring up to the attention of the author that the emulator Goomba Color has been forked and continued over at GBATemp, and one of the updates fixing Pokémon Crystal's graphical corruption: https://github.com/EvilJagaGenius/jagoombacolor Still though, for those using the older version of Goomba, they can enjoy this little patch and continue gaming on their Goomba emu ;)
