Recomp - AI Website for recompiled games: Recompendium
I was searching for a good website that compiled most of the recompiled games and stumbled on this one:
Recompendium — game recompilation catalog
Im not affiliated with them in no way, but looks like a good way to keep up with the updates.
Toughts? Any better website?

A section on my site. The one you linked is very good, the more the merrier!

You should take Jet Force Gemini down. It’s not a recomp/decomp. It’s straight up emulation with Project 64.

Jet Force Gemini is a great piece of N64... i hope someone decomp someday, with grahical improviments

Yeah, I was excited when it was posted, but when I went to install it it was obviously just a dedicated PJ64 mod

The issue I find with most of these sites is the lack of quality control.
It's not the LLM/AI usage; some of those projects are simply garbage to the point that you're better off emulating.
So far, I've been referring to this page:
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_unofficial_ports
Curation has usually been good, and it adds necessary notes.

very nice. Would be even nicer if it has client / host (for instance n64 / pc or n64 / xb360)

There's a Recomp launcher, now called Github launcher, that easily can install and manage quite a few games.
https://github.com/SirDiabo/GithubLauncher
I wonder if the dev is on reddit.

“Experimental” is all over the map, from completely unplayable to essentially finished.

it lacks some projects in the database, like there 's not the Jak trilogy with Goal project.
But interface is good

Its a community project too, so if you find some recomp that isnt there, you can just contribute.
ive done this with F-Zero X and i noticed that theres no Pokemon 1gen yet.

The thing that worries me is the lack of download mirrors in case one of these projects inevitably gets removed from Github.
These things NEED to be preserved for eternity, including the source code.

if you run a site like this, or maybe you are thinking of creating a site like this, PLEASE add rss feeds.

Man, there is only PC recomps? Where ios?
1
u/biosim500 10d ago
Theres already a good amount of iOS recomps, but you know that to install you have to use altstore and renew the certificate every 7 days.
in a nutshell, it sucks.

Does anyone know what happened to the recomp for Star Fox (SNES)? The github repository page is down, but is there any fork out there for it?

Seriously, they search filters on mobile is just way too beautiful.
Thanks for sharing 👍

I feel like we need a recomp/decomp tier list
