ROMM is where you can browse and play retro games right in your browser — no emulator setup required. This guide covers the basics.

Go to romm.twilighttv.myddns.me and sign in with your ROMM account.

ROMM uses a separate account from Jellyfin — see Account & Access Help if you don't have one yet or need a password reset.

TwilightTV's ROMM library covers systems up to the 5th generation of consoles — think PS1, N64, Genesis, SNES, and earlier. If you're looking for something newer that isn't there, it's likely outside what the server supports right now.

After logging in, you'll see your library organized by platform (NES, SNES, PS1, etc.). Each platform section shows the games available for it as cover art tiles.

• Click a platform to see every game available for that system
• Use the search bar at the top to find a game by name across all platforms
• Click a game's cover art to open its detail page — this shows info like release date, genre, and description

1. Click a game to open its detail page
2. Click Play
3. The game launches in an in-browser emulator — no downloads or extra software needed

• Keyboard: default controls work out of the box, though they can feel clunky for action games
• Controller: plug in a USB controller (or connect Bluetooth) before hitting Play — most browsers will auto-detect it once a button is pressed

The in-browser emulator supports save states, so you don't need to rely on the game's own save system:

• Use the emulator's on-screen menu (usually a small toolbar or press a hotkey) to save state or load state
• Save states are tied to your account, so they'll be there next time you log in — even on a different device

If you'd rather play on a real emulator or handheld instead of in-browser, most games have a Download button on their detail page to grab the ROM file directly.

Click the heart/star icon on a game to add it to your Favorites, making it easier to find again without digging through the full platform library.

• Struggling with input lag in-browser? Try a wired controller instead of Bluetooth, and close other tabs/apps hogging bandwidth.
• Can't find a specific game? It might just not be in the library yet — ask an admin on Discord if you'd like it added.
• Save states are per-game, so you can have different progress points saved without overwriting each other.
