Nevermind, the PC decompilation of King Kong IS vibe coded. Turns out I wrote "is king king remastered" rather than "king kong" on google. Deleted my posts promoting it, because fuck AI. Dusklight, the Twilight Princess decompilation for the PC on the other hand, is not. So I'll link it down below.

These are just a few examples where the PC version has been brought closer to the PS1 original. This is the culmination of close to a decade of effort from the modding community, helped most recently by the FFVII decompilation project, which is over a year old now. A big thanks to everyone involved!

Holy shit, having a custom-built UI for a decompilation is insane
Also holy shit at using Qwen 3.8 27B for this.

I hope this is just intended against people trying to make and sell copycat games, and not meant against people doing non-commercial decompilation projects for porting and game modding.

In this week's @aiandgames.com I focus on the big issues surrounding vibe coding and how it's bleeding into store discovery and decompilation and homebrew communities.

You also have some of Thigikna's cutscene artwork as "proof" as well, although some have been run through AI to hilarious effect. As previously mentioned, simply posting these means nothing, since the files are available to anyone upon decompilation. So here's a gif of these assets in Krita.

not even raw disassembly or automatic decompilation output will be provided. when necessary, i will show *simplified pseudocode* based on excerpts of disassembly and automatic decompilation, but *not* full functions, and i will hand-rewrite them.

the decompilation part is the one I didn't see coming. is that people pointing LLMs at old binaries, or more vibe coded ports?

decided to put my GPUs where my mouth is
64 hours ago, I started decompiling Just Cause 2 using a bespoke harness, three xx90-class GPUs, two computers, and (now) 22 parallel sessions of Qwen 3.8 27B with 45K context each
I now have 6% of functions (note: <1% bytecode) decompiled w/ byte-matching

Both. People using existing tools/ecosystems to decompile games and flooding repos with pull requests. Meanwhile porting them to new platforms which threatens the legal grey area that decompilation exists within.
