Emulator Corruptor

RTC’s technology makes it possible to corrupt a wide variety of emulated systems and edit/improve the results as seen fit.

Videogame corruptions can cause programs to output loud noises and flashy images. If you are prone to seizure, react strongly to flashing lights or loud noises, Do not or cease making/playing corruptions.
Corrupting is an experimental hobby involving manipulation of data in a manner that glitches out programs for entertainment value. Crafting program glitches is an art form.

While RTC is built in a way that should in no way harm your computer, we cannot take responsibility for anything that should happen to your computer while using our software. Don’t corrupt system32, be smart.
