What you can use today
v1.2.6 supplies Windows, macOS and Linux archives plus a Linux/Steam Deck Flatpak, fixing held Escape/Enter behavior. Provide your own XBLA title 584108FF version 0x102. Initial audio extraction needs FFmpeg; Flatpak bundles it, and an already prepared data folder does not need it. Windows/Linux require Vulkan; macOS 11+ supports Apple Silicon and Intel. Multiplayer is local for up to four players; optional online score sync uses a separate friends’ server. RemakeList has not installed or played it.
