Recomp / Games / Nintendo Switch
MK8-online
Experimental recompilation of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe 4.0.1's AArch64 code to C, built on the SMM2Recomp and LASRecomp runtimes and wrapped in a Rust/Tauri launcher that prepares the build from the player's own dump and keys. Single races complete at about 60 fps in local tests; room-code LAN multiplayer is under development.
