I do, I forked your github repo and created branches for each GCC versions supported : Branches · willll/Saturn-SDK-GCC-SH2
The latest version is 13.2.0 :

/opt/saturn/toolchain/bin/sh-elf-gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=/opt/saturn/toolchain/bin/sh-elf-gcc
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/opt/saturn/toolchain/libexec/gcc/sh-elf/13.2.0/lto-wrapper
Target: sh-elf

Hi, I have to decide between jo-engine and sssdk. Jo-Engine seems to be sorted out and in big quotes "production ready", but I don't really know? So the elephant in the room for me is which engines is more performant while keeping the technical side of this old console away from me. Not that I don't like to dive into architecture but I want to stage a multi platform launch so I would appreciate a little abstraction of the hardware. Jo-Engine has an abstraction which I would call sufficient. Not that I really want to use Jo-Engine but I would rather like to see what the competition has to offer? So if you could link me some details to the sdk, I would appreciate it. Best regards pizza_dox_9999

For what you describe you probably want Jo-Engine for the abstraction it offers, I believe most consider it easier like your understanding of it. I don't have a link off-hand to an in-depth description of SSSDK, but you could always look at the sames to get an idea:

Thread 'SDK Samples'

Jul 26, 2015

While working on the list of samples for the SDK, I was curious as to what else could be demonstrated, whether it's a specific mode for the Saturn or some peripheral function. Thus far, the following samples are planned:

Common - Common code for all samples
00 - Basic | Gamepad input and text output on the display [Done|YouTube video]
01 - Sprite | Displays a sprite which can be moved around [Done|YouTube video]
02 - Textured Sprite | Adds a texture to sample 01 [In progress]
03 - Cube | 3D cube, rotated, scaled, and translated via the gamepad...

Thank you very much for the answer. I will take your advise and stick with Jo-Engine. Best regards pizza_dox_9999
