Gen1Recomp

A native Lua/LOVE2D recreation of Red, Blue, Gold, Silver and Crystal: despite the name, it no longer stops at the first generation. The engine and map behaviour are hand-written; game data and graphics are decoded from a ROM the player supplies. It is a recreation, not a static recompilation.

You need your own legal copy of the game. The recomp is only code: dump your own ROM / disc image and point it there.
