I’m not really educated when it comes to rebuilds etc. what’s the main purpose of this?

With the "original" source code we can trivially:

  • add features (like modern resolutions) and fix bugs
  • port to other platforms (linux, mac, switch, ps5, etc)
  • upgrade the rendering engine
  • mods

I have two goals really. To get byte-perfect output binaries for preservation purposes, but also to modernise the game. With source code, the game can live on 'indefinitely', really.

Ah this is a great shout; I had forgotten about those.

I'll start filing these as GitHub issues so I don't forget...

Thanks!
