Given the recent events in the decomp scene, I'd like to give a reminder to support human-made work and avoid/ignore the clout chasers and their slop
Thank you 🙏
This is another reminder about the PaRappa 2 decompilation project, where we reached 64% (~43% for matched bytes) of completion. 🎉
Recently we achieved shiftability (the ability to add & delete code and data).
As always, any help is appreciated 🙂

with the sunsetting of decomp.dev, people really need to come to terms with just how much damage vibecoders have done to our community and OSS in general. encounter is a fellow dusklight dev and friend, seeing people treat him as replaceable in the scene is upsetting

felix86 26.10 is out! Some Denuvo, EA, and Blizzard games now work on RISC-V, like Mortal Kombat 1, Sims 4, and Hearthstone, plus sweet optimizations.

So tired of seeing AI recomps. Basically, all useless trash.
Useless for modding, useless for research, useless for reverse engineering. Most of the time, the OG games can be played on emulators, so useless again.
It was never about game preservation, it was about clout.
"oh if it's code it doesn't matter if it's AI", "as long as it works", that's how they twist the narrative.
When it's not about art, it's suddenly okay to use

These completely vibecoded recomps are ruining the name of decomps and recomps because when they’re done right, they’re so freaking cool.
Knuckles’ Chaotix Recompiled brings Sega’s 32X oddity to Windows and Android, with proper widescreen support and modern controls. A rare Sonic spin-off is suddenly much easier to revisit. #RetroGaming #Sega #Sonic generationamiga.com/2026/09/…

Thanks to projects like these, more and more people's first introduction to recomps and retro dev/homebrew is "PoS that barely works and has no attention to detail". Pretty sad...

If you were wondering why so many Re- and Decomps were made recently, it's because of AI.
They are often not on par with the quality of earlier decomps (SM64, MM) or recomps (MM) - there is often less care, less technical know-how with the decisionmakers and less QA involved.
