# Tom and Jerry: War of the Whiskers: an experimental GameCube decompilation

> wotwdecomp reconstructs the GameCube game Tom and Jerry: War of the Whiskers with C++ and assembly and builds a specified main.dol. Its Makefile combines reconstructed functions, remaining assembly, and the required GameCube toolchains. The author describes the build as experimental because unresolved hardcoded pointers prevent shifting it for general changes.
