Since the rewrite, the emulator can produce debug messages in an interface that doubles as a frontend, and, since, January 11th, 2021, fully load helloworld.mod, which prints 'Hello World' using the IDisplay::DrawText API. An OpenGL backend is being written for rendering purposes. It is unsupported due to no interfaces being exposed to it. However, some functions of the exposed AEEHelperFuncs, IShell and IDisplay interfaces are implemented, and the other functions are stubs to get modules to boot.

On January 11th, 2021, it was announced helloworld.mod fully loads. However, it is unable to render text, making it only appear in debug logs. Tuxality gave two further milestones: to render 'Hello World' in helloworld.mod and possibly bring Infuse back to the standards of before the rewrite, including working BREW multithreading, timers and key input and properly loading dependencies and exported classes available to BREW modules via the IShell::CreateInstance API.

===Milestones===
 
+
* January 11th, 2021 - helloworld.mod fully loads. However, it is unable to render text, only making it appear in debug logs.  
As of February 5th, Devil May Cry (BREW + iMicro3D), Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D (Zeebo) almost run in game, while Asphalt Urban GT 2 3D (BREW), Kingdom Hearts V-Cast (BREW + SWERVE 3D) and Quake (Zeebo) are at a much later stage than the PoC. Despite the progress, Tuxality was thinking about whether to switch to a different ARM emulator or write one due to issues caused by compiling with Thumb interworking enabled; it would otherwise boot. Support for ARM would also be fixed, but it is not considered important right now.
+
* Future - The next two milestones are to render 'Hello World' in helloworld.mod and possibly bring Infuse back to the standards of before the rewrite, including working BREW multithreading, timers and key input and properly loading dependencies and exported classes available to BREW modules via the IShell::CreateInstance API.
