About
Metroid Prime is a 2002 action-adventure game developed by Retro Studios and published by Nintendo for the GameCube, the first Metroid game with 3D graphics and a first-person view. Metaforce is a reverse-engineered, native reimplementation of Metroid Prime targeting Windows, macOS and Linux with D3D12, Vulkan, OpenGL and Metal backends. It is in alpha, and builds are currently unavailable while the project undergoes large changes. It benefits from the separate matching decompilation of Metroid Prime.
Getting started
No prebuilt builds are currently offered, so it has to be built from source with CMake and Python. Once built, it is launched as a native app, with command-line options for console logging, warping to a specific area and a developer UI. It needs the original game's data.
Known limitations
- project-status: Currently in alpha state; builds are unavailable while undergoing large changes.
