Pre-release
Pre-release
Alpha / pre-release
DKC3Recomp is still in bring-up. This build makes the current native macOS
foundation available for testing; it is not a claim of full-game compatibility.
You must supply your own headerless North American (En,Fr) DKC3 ROM. The
supported 4 MiB image has SHA-256
2277a2d8dddb01fe5cb0ae9a0fa225d42b3a11adccaeafa18e3c339b3794a32b.
No ROM, save data, generated C, screenshots, music, or extracted game assets
are included in the download.
macOS build
- Apple silicon (
arm64), macOS 26 or newer. - Ad-hoc signed and not notarized. If Gatekeeper blocks the first launch,
Control-clickDKC3Recomp.app, choose Open, and confirm once. - Includes its SDL2 runtime and a new original macOS app icon.
- Open the app and select the supported ROM in the launcher; the ROM remains
outside the application bundle.
Included in this alpha
- Native boot through the Rare logo, title, Northern Kremisphere map, and
Lakeside Limbo attract path. - Experimental 16:10 and 16:9 presentation, with native centering when a scene
has not passed its widescreen evidence gate. - Widened Lakeside Limbo terrain, placed-object activation, sprite culls, and
static banana arcs. - Configurable input, launcher and in-game overlay, rewind, fast-forward, and
quick save/load support.
Validation
- Built from commit
b65360dwith the pinned submodules. - 19 of 19 CTest checks passed, including the private-ROM headless boot and the
hidden macOS app, 16:10, and quick-save smoke tests. - The extracted release ZIP passed an additional 180-frame hidden-app run with
overlay, rewind, and fast-forward enabled. - Deep strict code-signature verification passed before and after archiving.
- ZIP SHA-256:
