Beta for testing. See SETUP.md.
New: two-player co-op (experimental). Campaign co-op over System Link between two PCs on the same network or over a virtual LAN such as Tailscale. Set the other player's address in crackdown.toml, then Campaign → Play Now - Co-op → Host/Join System Link Game. See SETUP.md → Co-op.
- So far it has been tested with two copies of the game on one PC: both players spawn into the city together and stay connected. Not yet tested between two PCs. Reports welcome.
- Co-op runs at the original 30 fps. At 60 fps the connection drops a second after spawning.
New: Archipelago randomizer (experimental). Orbs, supply points, weapon deposits and bosses are checks; skills and weapons are items; goal: defeat the three kingpins. Needs Archipelago 0.6.8 or newer. Install crackdown.apworld, make a YAML (Options Creator or Crackdown.yaml), then connect from the launcher's ARCHIPELAGO tab. See SETUP.md → Archipelago.
Also: launcher archipelago:// room links.
No game data included; you must supply your own Crackdown (World multi-language) disc dump. Unsigned beta: Windows SmartScreen/Defender may warn; see SETUP.md.
Assets: CrackdownRecomp-beta0.3.0.zip and its .sha256 (used by the launcher's updater); crackdown.apworld and Crackdown.yaml for Archipelago.
