About this recompilation

Build required

Windows static-recompiled build via Proton/umu-run (DXVK/FAudio)

Requirements

Own BLiNX 2 Xbox dump; approximately 15 GB build space; build wizard or uv/Git/Python. Windows build runs through umu-run and GE-Proton; Steam Deck Desktop Mode for build/install.

Sources

Maintainer documents Steam Deck as regular test hardware and Linux/GE-Proton 11 gameplay with sound/saves. This is a Proton route, not a native Linux game build. Scripted stage/boss coverage is not independent whole-game verification. 30 fps/4:3; resize and GPU rendering limitations remain.

Build required

Native static recompilation

Requirements

Apple Silicon Mac; own BLiNX 2 Xbox dump; approximately 15 GB free. Build wizard or uv/Git/Python plus Xcode Command Line Tools and documented Homebrew dependencies. Metal rendering.

Sources

Maintainer reports gameplay with audio/saves, but stage 5-1 crash was observed and remains under investigation. Connect controller before launch. Scripted stage/boss reachability does not establish a complete manual playthrough. Fixed 30 fps/4:3. Asset is a build wizard; local compilation required.
