Stunts HD: recompiling Stunts for browser and desktop

Stunts HD recompiles Stunts 1.1, the 1990 DOS game also released as 4D Sports Driving. The player's GAME.EXE is translated to JavaScript and drawn in HD at the display resolution, with widescreen and the original physics. It runs in Chrome, Edge, or Firefox, and as a desktop app on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
