Dragon Warrior IV (NES): arichmondphoto/DragonWarrior4NESRecomp

A developer publishing as arichmondphoto released DragonWarrior4NESRecomp, a static recompilation of the NES game Dragon Warrior IV built on the mstan/nesrecomp cycle backend, with an AI-generated HD graphics pack and a console-agnostic launcher for settings and Game Genie cheat codes. The HD sprites, maps and titles were generated with OpenAI GPT-Image-2.5-sunburst and the monsters with OpenAI GPT-Image-2, and the author reports the project was coded with assistance from Claude, with multiple commits co-authored by Claude Opus 5.5. The HD pack is presentation-only, leaving game logic identical to the original; the build supports macOS and Linux and requires users to supply their own legally obtained ROM, and the author notes the project is not 100% play-tested.
