About this project

A static recompilation of the GBA game for Windows and Linux, Steam Deck included, on an edited copy of gbarecomp and without a GBA BIOS. One launcher builds the game from your ROM and also runs The Lost Age, and Seamless mode carries your save over to the sequel. Playable from the start to the ending credits, with a widescreen view, colour profiles, screen filters, a walk speed setting, savestates, and keyboard and controller bindings. Still in public testing: a few spell effects stop at the old screen edge, and a rare crash after Psynergy battles is caught rather than fixed. Developed with help from AI tools.

What you need

Your own Golden Sun ROM (GBA, USA/Europe; the launcher checks it). The compiler comes with the download; Linux needs SDL2 and OpenGL.
