About this port

MatyMeatBoy and ReKHCoM contributors' Windows, browser, Android and Linux port of the original Game Boy Advance Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, based on Pheenoh/khcom. Uses the player's own supported cartridge dump. Linux/Steam Deck builds are nightly prereleases; Android, Web and ARM handheld packages retain alpha caveats. This is not the PlayStation 2 remake.

Linux support and installation

Linux

Native decompilation-based port

Requirements

Own unpatched EU/US/JP 32 MiB GBA ROM placed in roms/. Linux PC package uses X11/XWayland and PulseAudio/PipeWire or ALSA; loader/libraries bundled, software rendering, no separate launcher. Steam Deck package uses ReKHCoM.sh added as a non-Steam game. ARM handheld alpha requires a 64-bit kernel supporting 32-bit ARM and /dev/fb0.

Sources

Nightly prerelease, not stable v1.9.2. No Valve Deck Verified status. Anbernic alpha not tested on real handheld hardware. Full campaign, performance and broad-device compatibility not established. Back up saves; quickstates are build-specific. Release claims bundled-library lookup fix for issue19, not universal hardware validation.
