# WHITE ALBUM2: a shared engine migration from static recompilation

> The WHITE ALBUM2 port shares game logic between Windows x64 and Android ARM64 while migrating from a hybrid static recompilation to a native C++ compatibility engine. Current native components handle save flags, script behavior and resource processing; the delivered shared-aot build still uses recompiled functions. Original PAK files remain external.

## Requirements & limits

- **Prerequisites:** Authorized original game resources and private cached inputs are required for a full-game build.
- **Limits:** The native engine migration is incomplete; the current shared-aot release retains recompiled functions and original address state.
- **License:** The project MIT license covers newly written project code and documentation; third-party and game-derived inputs have separate terms.
