NocturneRecomp is a native port of the Xbox Live Arcade version of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for Windows and Linux (x64 and ARM64), made by static recompilation with the ReXGlue SDK.

The recompiled game is wrapped in a small host runtime with logging, overlays and hooks, so it can be modded like a PC game. There are separate builds for the game with and without its title update, and recent releases add a native achievements screen and Japanese text.

The download contains no game data. It needs the Xbox Live Arcade package of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, dumped from your own console.

## How to set it up

1. Download the build for your system; the builds marked TU are for a game with the title update installed, the others for the game without it.
2. Extract the archive and run `nocturnerecomp` (`nocturnerecomp.exe` on Windows).
3. The first run asks for your XBLA package and extracts the game from it.
