# Tenchu: Stealth Assassins recompilation

> Version 0.1.0 recompiles Tenchu: Stealth Assassins for the PlayStation, USA SLUS-00706, into C# with a fork of RecompOne. The launcher checks the disc boot executable and refuses any other disc. The disc stays required at runtime. Release 0.1.0 boots, plays, and saves. The controller stays inactive for about the first 20 seconds of the intro. Auto-save is off until Options enables it. A PlayStation BIOS is optional because the engine services BIOS calls itself.
