Hybrid Heaven: an AI-assisted matching N64 decompilation
Hybrid Heaven reconstructs the 1999 Nintendo 64 game as C that is compared byte for byte with a user-supplied ROM. The repository includes function matching, register tracing, ROM packing and agent orchestration tools, plus per-batch research on model-assisted decompilation. The author reports 78.75% of code bytes matched at the stated update.
