Case study

Fahrenheit: an analytical PS2 prototype decompilation

santamonica is an early C++ decompilation of a PS2 prototype of Fahrenheit, also known as Indigo Prophecy. The prototype's RUNTIME.ELF and RUNTIME.MAP supply debugging symbols for analysis, and the build scripts compare the produced ELF with a recorded checksum. The author intends the unfinished work for learning and analysis.
