Advanced Daisenryaku PC: a native Windows port of the Mega Drive game

Advanced Daisenryaku PC ports the Sega Mega Drive strategy game to native Windows in C/C++ using statically translated game logic. It reconstructs cartridge flow, turn-based combat, campaign state, graphics and input around a user-supplied ROM. Its development reports describe ROM differential tests and selected presentation comparisons.
