Descent 1 & 2 using DXX-Rebirth, ported to retro handhelds. Runs via PortMaster. Shareware demo files included; you can provide your own full game version.
Latest PortMaster version built from commit b5ca993 for aarch64. Cmpatibility binary built from commit e1d68f5 and compatibility fix c22de97.
Add-On files allow you to customize DXX-Rebirth to your liking. You might prefer certain soundcard midi audio, or even the PS1 soundtrack.
To use an add-on, simply drop the .dxa file into the descent/data folder. These dxa files are just .zip files, so you can open them and modify however you like.
There are several soundtrack addons to choose from as well as missions.
Some of these files are large and are therefore split into archive parts. Use something like 7zip to unarchive them.
Missions can be found and downloaded from Descent Mission Archive.
