Sigh...I feel like a dummy for having to ask this. If anyone here has tried the emulator Alynx Free, how do I open a menu to switch games or whatever? I installed it on my android tablet, it started up fine, the game I tried works great but now I can't get back to the menu. The back button does nothing and if I push the home button to go back to the desktop and then relaunch the emulator from there, it just goes back to the same game. Help!

EDIT: Nevermind. I got it. Good emulator, but not very intuitive.

I haven't bothered with alynx for awhile. Have you tried force closing the app? There is a much better lynx emulator in Retroarch. It's an app with multiple emulators including Lynx, 32x, and even Virtual Boy. I'd recommend that instead of the poopy Alynx, which has been abandoned by its developers.

Seconded- retroarch isn't without its flaws but its lynx emulator works just fine. I haven't tried Alynx, but this is basically because I don't need to. :)
