totk-recomp

Recompiler, HLE runtime and NVN-on-Vulkan layer that turn a user's own TotK 1.0.0 cartridge dump and keys into a Linux x86-64 build aimed at the Steam Deck. No release; the build script takes around 17 minutes of compile time and building from the launcher is not wired up yet.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Ahead-of-time recompilation of Tears of the Kingdom 1.0.0 (1.4.3 in beta) to x86-64 with a Vulkan backend, installed by a small setup program that decrypts and builds the game from the player's own dump and keys.
