Alter Echo (Xbox, 2003), statically recompiled to run natively on PC. The installer builds the game on your computer from your own copy of the North American (NTSC) Xbox release, either a disc image (.iso) or its extracted files. No game files are included.

Which file do I download?

Your system Download Then
Windows 10/11 AlterEchoInstaller.exe Run it, choose an install folder and your disc image, and wait 30-60 minutes. Start Alter Echo from the Start Menu
Linux AlterEchoInstaller.sh In a terminal: bash AlterEchoInstaller.sh. Give it your disc image and a folder, and wait 25-45 minutes. Start Alter Echo from your applications menu

You don't need the "Source code" downloads below unless you're building it yourself; the README explains how.

Good to know

  • Windows will warn you: "Windows protected your PC". The installer isn't signed. Click More info, then Run anyway. The installer downloads its build tools (GCC with CMake and Ninja, about 270 MB, and the capstone disassembler) and checks each against a pinned checksum.
  • Linux: if build tools are missing, the installer lists them and asks before installing them with your package manager (pacman, apt, dnf or zypper). It builds the native Linux version. No Wine is needed.
  • About 6 GB of free disk space is needed in the install folder. Your saves, settings and logs stay inside it.
  • Controls: an Xbox 360-compatible controller, or keyboard and mouse. The README lists the keys, settings and troubleshooting.

How tested is it?

  • Linux: played start to finish. Both the installer and the setup were tested from a clean start on an Arch-based system. On Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora and openSUSE the package names it installs are untested, so if it stops at that step, please report it.
  • Windows: experimental. The installer and the game it builds have only been run under Wine, never on a real Windows PC. If you try it, please open an issue with how it went, whether it worked or not, and attach install.log from the install folder if the installer stopped.
