Case study

Chrono Trigger: a matching SNES US 1.0 disassembly

Chrono Trigger US 1.0 is reconstructed as banked SNES assembly with symbolic pointer tables and RAM labels. A build script extracts data blobs from the user's ROM, assembles the source with asar, and checks that the result is byte-identical to the input ROM.
