Jet Force Gemini: Recompiled — an N64 static recompilation port

Jet Force Gemini: Recompiled translates the US N64 game's code from a user-supplied ROM into C with N64Recomp and runs it with N64ModernRuntime and RT64. The native port supports Windows, Linux and Steam Deck, with revised controls, display options and mod loading. The repository also contains game-specific source and build scripts.
