Hellnight

Game: Hellnight (PS1, 1998)

A native PC version of Hellnight (PlayStation, 1999; Dark Messiah in Japan), made with the PSXRecomp static recompiler and the recomp-ui launcher, with the bundled OpenBIOS image instead of a Sony BIOS. Version 0.1.7 (October 26) has packages for Windows x64, Linux x64, and macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel). It is an early release tested on Windows: with the NTSC-converted dump it reaches the title, New Game starts, dialogue, the examine cursor, and room transitions work, and saving to and loading from a memory card works; with the Redump dump and the Undub patch it was only tested up to the intro. An optional mod widens the 3D view to 16:9 or 21:9, and there are optional cheats. The README states it was made with AI assistance (Claude), and all 17 of its commits list Claude as a co-author.
