Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest

The original DKC2 recomp, a byproduct of developing snesrecomp: the 65816 program is translated to C wherever the analysis can prove an exact entry state (3,475 AOT variants), and a shared 65816 interpreter covers the rest. Its author calls it an unfinished pre-release. The elliotttate fork is the one actively developed and more widely used today: it adds a native Apple Silicon macOS build and the option to play as Donkey or Kiddy Kong.
