Skies of Arcadia Legends: Recompiled — a native GameCube game port

This is a native port of the GameCube game Skies of Arcadia Legends for Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android. It translates the PowerPC code ahead of time and uses Dolphin's graphics, sound, and input code. The documented beta is v0.83. Select Disc accepts the original USA, European, or Japanese release, game IDs GEAE8P, GEAP8P, and GEAJ8P, as RVZ, ISO, GCM, GCZ, WIA, or CISO. The Japanese disc is Eternal Arcadia Legends. Windows 10 version 1703 or 11 runs Skies of Arcadia Legends.exe. Linux uses an AppImage or the unpacked binary. macOS 13 or later is Apple silicon. Android is 7.0 or newer on arm64.
