Digimon World 2 Decompilation

About

A matching decompilation of Digimon World 2 for the Sony PlayStation. It aims to recover readable C that compiles with a period-correct toolchain into a binary byte-identical to the original executable. All 1088 game functions are matched, and the C rebuilds the USA executable and all 7 stage overlays byte-identical.

How it differs from the original

The main executable and some overlays have real function names, with the battle, dungeon, city and VS overlays next. A non-matching build for modding and ports is planned after that.

Getting started

You must own the game: the repository contains no ROMs, disc images or copyrighted assets.

Known issues & limitations

• A non-matching build for modding and ports is still future work.

What you need to run it

Licensing & legal

• The project code is licensed CC0 1.0.

Credits & contributing

• The workflow and toolchain are derived from the Parasite Eve 2 decomp.
