Does it, or will it later, have online multiplayer?
Looking at their GitHub page, I'm gonna say no. You need the ROM file of the original game, so while it looks like they're doing some things like key bindings and increased frame rates, I'd be shocked if they went so far as to implement something as complex as online multiplayer.
They need the rom to dump the assets. They can’t legally redistribute those.
