# GoldenEye 007 PC Port

A work-in-progress native PC port of the original 1997 Nintendo 64
_GoldenEye 007_, compiled from the game's
[decompiled source](https://github.com/n64decomp/007) and running the N64's
graphics coprocessor in software. It follows the architecture of the
[Perfect Dark PC port](https://github.com/fgsfdsfgs/perfect_dark).

It's also a case study in AI-agent collaboration on a large, low-level
codebase: two coding agents (a local open-weight model, Qwen 3.8, on a single
RTX 5090, and Claude / Claude Code), driven by one person part-time through
~230 translation units of unmodified big-endian MIPS game code, handing work
back and forth through shared written notes.

**Status:** alpha, [v0.1.0](https://github.com/jkdansereau/goldeneye-pc-port/releases)
released. Runs the full single-player campaign — all 21 missions load, render,
and are crash-free; a full re-playthrough confirming all 21 completable start
to finish is still owed. In-level sound effects and in-level music both play;
a handful of tracks have wrong-sounding instruments or occasional garbling.
AI pacing and cutscenes are rough.
