Requirements

Own extracted Nintendo Switch game v1.0.0; compatible Vulkan GPU on Windows/Linux or Apple Silicon Metal on macOS. Setup locally generates and compiles game code from the supplied dump on first start.

Beta crashes/graphics issues remain. Beta4 randomizer can mislabel bomb refills as Bomb Bag. Earlier controller-start-screen issue was fixed in beta3; Linux ARM64 package is untested. Download is a setup/runtime package, not a ready compiled game.
