RampageRE: a native reconstruction of Rampage: Total Destruction

RampageRE rebuilds Rampage: Total Destruction for native platforms using a PS2Recomp static recompilation as a reference and replacement code for game formats, rendering, and systems. Its documentation covers scripts, bundles, effects, monsters, and other game data; the port reads data from the player's PS2 disc.
