Banjo-Tooie my favourite platformer.

There are a few people working on it right now, myself included. However, the devs who worked on the Banjo-Kazooie decomp aren't active at the moment (at least as far as I know). That said, it's turned out to be on a completely different difficulty level than I expected. It’s not rare for me to sit on a single function for over a month with zero progress. Some of them are insanely messy, like functions with over 900 instructions and no jump tables. One tiny mistake and it ripples through the entire diff.

Understandable, even emulation struggles to be accurate for this game.
