What you need: The Xbox Live Arcade package of Rez HD, dumped from your own console.

This is a native port of the Xbox Live Arcade game Rez HD for Windows and Linux, part of CrownParkComputing's Xbox360-Native-Ports collection. The game code is statically recompiled to x86-64 with the group's fork of the ReXGlue SDK.

Every CrownParkComputing launcher contains the recompiled game code, a native Vulkan renderer, native audio and a small launcher. Importing checks the game files against the checksums the port was built from, and the importer also installs DLC packs. The Linux build runs the game in a headless gamescope session inside the rexmenu launcher, which tracks achievements and manages saves; it needs `gamescope` and `python3`. The Windows build uses simple batch launchers.

All the ports in the collection were released on the same day and are called playable by the author; the Windows builds are cross-compiled and less tested. The download contains no game data. It needs the Xbox Live Arcade package of Rez HD, dumped from your own console.

## How to set it up

1. Download `rez-launcher-windows-x86_64.zip` or `rez-launcher-linux-x86_64.tar.zst` and extract it (`tar --zstd -xf` on Linux).
2. Windows: run `Launcher.bat` (or `Play.bat`, which imports on first run). Linux: run `./run.sh` (needs `gamescope` and `python3`).
3. When asked, point it at your own copy: the Rez HD XBLA package (title 584108B3), as the single LIVE/CON/PIRS file or its extracted files.
4. Play. Saves and settings stay in `user-data` next to the launcher; a Vulkan GPU driver is required.
