Deception IV: The Nightmare Princess (PS4) - Recompiled to PC
Runs the PS4 game's x86-64 code on the PC with reimplemented system libraries and a Vulkan renderer taken from shadPS4, plus a full implementation of Koei Tecmo's KTSL2 audio so sound and music play. It needs a decrypted dump of the player's own copy (CUSA02859) and adds an intro skip and in-game display settings; it stays at 30 FPS.

Astral Chain
A set of patches and build tooling on top of the SuperMarioWonderRecomp runtime that recompiles the Switch game from the player's own 1.0.0 NSP and keys into an Apple-silicon Mac app. The preview release is a build kit and setup app only; Linux and Windows builds boot in early headless tests.
Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere, recompiled
Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere
Native Windows build of the PlayStation Ace Combat 3, with MIPS code translated to C and linked against rewritten Psy-Q libraries. Ships a software renderer and an enhanced Vulkan renderer.
Astral Chain PC
Astral Chain
Experimental Windows port of PlatinumGames' Astral Chain made by translating its ARM64 code to C, with NVN graphics on Vulkan and a 60 fps patch. Releases are source plus a launcher that builds it from the player's own dump and keys; tested up to the first case's boss.
B3-Express
Bayonetta 3
Student project that runs Bayonetta 3 v1.2.0 on Windows through a modified copy of the ScarletNX static recompiler and its Vulkan NVN renderer. A launcher installs from the player's extracted dump, compiles the game code locally and adds mod management, widescreen and detail options ported from Witch Time.
Bayonetta 3 Recomp
Bayonetta 3
Independent static recompiler and Horizon/NVN runtime that turns Bayonetta 3 v1.2.0 into native x86-64 and ARM64 programs with a Vulkan back end. The Windows release is a source-and-tools package that builds from the player's own ExeFS and RomFS; it has desktop and Android launchers and touch controls.
bbport
Bloodborne
Runs Bloodborne 1.09's own x86-64 code directly on a PC, replacing the PS4 system libraries with a purpose-built runtime and translating the GPU work to Vulkan through a renderer and shader translator that began as shadPS4's. It adds FSR and DLSS upscaling, unlocked frame rates, wide aspect ratios, keyboard and mouse, and online play with seamless co-op; the player supplies a decrypted 1.09 dump. Forks include Supermedo's Windows build and an Uncharted adaptation.
