Goemon 64: Recompiled — a native Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon port
Goemon 64: Recompiled statically recompiles the North American Nintendo 64 release of Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon. The menu loads assets from that ROM, including .z64 and other formats of the same image. Rendering uses RT64. A Direct3D 12 Shader Model 6, Vulkan 1.2, or Metal Argument Buffers Tier 2 GPU is required. x86-64 also needs SSE4.1. macOS 13 or newer covers Apple Silicon and Intel 7th-generation CPUs. ARM64 builds run on ARM64 CPUs. Build steps are in BUILDING.md.
