Chameleon Twist Decompilation

About

A decompilation project for Chameleon Twist, working from the Japanese v1.0 ROM. The decompilation is not near completion, so there is no system yet for people outside the project to use the code.

Getting started

Developers can clone the repository, install the package requirements, place the Japanese v1.0 ROM (matching the stated SHA1) in the repo root, and run configure and ninja; a matching ROM prints OK.

Known issues & limitations

• The modding system is in progress and requires more areas of the game to be decompiled before it can be used to make mods.

What you need to run it

Status & roadmap

• Progress badges are updated automatically by CI on every push to the main branch, and should not be edited by hand.

Modding & tools

• Work has started on a modding system that would let the decompilation be used to make mods, but more of the game must be decompiled first.
