The game has a download. Unzip KirbyAirRideRecompiled-1.2.0-windows-x64.zip, run kirbyairride.exe and choose your Kirby Air Ride (USA) disc image (.iso, .gcm, .ciso, .rvz or .wia), or drop it on the window.

The first time, the program builds the game from your disc: it checks the program on it, recompiles it to C++ and compiles that with the bundled clang. That takes a few minutes, once, and then the game starts. Nothing of the game is in the download, neither its code nor its data.

Building the game

  • 8 players online (City Trial): run Kirby Air Ride (8 players).bat. The first time, it builds the 8-rider build as well. Every player in an 8-player lobby uses it.
  • The disc it expects: the USA release's main.dol, SHA-1 977533bb96e6a16e127946396489be1b4164ac42. Any image format works, trimmed or not.
  • Needs: Windows 10/11 64-bit, about 1 GB free during setup (the game it builds is about 55 MB).
  • If setup stops: the screen says why, and setup.log beside the program has the details. More in docs/SETUP.md.

Dedicated server (unchanged): server-1.1.0.
