Mega Man 8 Recomp

Status: Complete / Playable

This project is a recompilation of Mega Man 8, the classic PlayStation game developed and published by Capcom.

The game has been successfully recompiled into a native application and is complete and playable.

About

This project uses mstan's PSXRecomp tool to recompile the original PlayStation game into native source code that can be built and run as a standalone application.

The underlying recompilation technology and much of the difficult work involved in making this possible are thanks to mstan's PSXRecomp project.

This repository is intended to preserve and share the recompiled source code and project files, allowing others to study, build, modify, and contribute to the project.

Features

  • Complete and playable game
  • Native recompilation
  • PlayStation version of Mega Man 8
  • Recompiled using PSXRecomp
  • Graphics working correctly
  • Frame rate working correctly
  • Gameplay working correctly
  • Controls working correctly
  • Source code available for building and development
  • No original game disc image included

Current Status

Complete / Playable

The recompilation is fully playable, with the major areas of the game functioning correctly.

Working
