BTD5-Decomp: a hand-built Bloons TD 5 decompilation

BTD5-Decomp reconstructs Bloons TD 5 source by hand in C++, using leftover debug information where available to name files and classes. Its intended comparison is between compiled project code and the game executable, while the current source tree remains unbuildable.
