## What it is
A community decompilation project that reconstructs the C source code of Animal Crossing for the Nintendo GameCube from its compiled binary. It requires an existing copy of the game and produces a matching build, with no game assets or assembly included in the repository.

## Use cases
- decompile Animal Crossing GameCube into readable C source
- study how the original game was programmed
- build a matching DOL from decompiled source
- learn GameCube PowerPC reverse engineering techniques
- contribute to a matching decompilation project
- create mods or ports based on reconstructed source

## When to choose
- you own the USA Rev 0 (GAFE01_00) copy of Animal Crossing and want to study or rebuild it
- you want to learn decompilation workflows with a well-structured, active project
- you need matching, compilable source for research or modding

## When to avoid
- you want a playable game or game assets - you must supply your own copy
- you need other regional or revision versions (only USA Rev 0 is supported)
- you are looking for a finished, 100% complete decompilation

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: compiler, reverse-engineering, build-tool, developer-tools
- domain: reverse-engineering, gaming-tools, developer-tools, tutorials
- platform: windows, cross-platform, cli
- tags: decompilation, gamecube, animal-crossing, dol, recompilation, assembly-matching, cc0, game-development, linux, macos
