Shantae

Game: Shantae (GBC, 2002)

A static recompilation of Shantae (Game Boy Color, US version) with gbrecompiled, for Windows (x64, x86, and ARM64) and Linux (x86-64 and aarch64, as a tarball or AppImage). It boots as a Game Boy Advance by default, with that edition’s extras, and keeps the original GBC palette. It adds an expanded world view in the aspect ratio of your choice, no slowdown, less input lag, smoother movement, a button for each transformation with a HUD of the Dance Menu’s icons, a map screen, a day and night clock, rewind, and RetroArch shader presets through librashader. A launcher asks for the ROM the first time and enables PLAY only for the right file. Version 0.2.0 is from October 22. All 36 of its commits list Claude as a co-author.
