Pokemon recompilation project gen1recomp adds FireRed and LeafGreen to its list of supported games
After adding support for Pokemon Crystal last month, the gen1recomp team are back again with the first third generation entries. Arriving amidst recent updates, both FireRed and LeafGreen are now playable through the lua-based application. At the time of writing, the game seems pretty ordinary, but if mods for the first and second generation are anything to go by, this could soon become the best way to play these games.
As with the other games in this project, you are required to supply a compatible ROM to be able to extract assets from. The latest version, v0.3.0, is available to download across Android, iOS, Switch, and a whole heap of other platforms. You can find the GitHub repo linked below.
Note for those interested that AI was used in this project as a tool to support development, with commits being reviewed by humans prior to being merged.
