Score: 6.3/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 4)

PanzerMortyr is a from-scratch reimplementation of the engine for the 1999 shooter Mortyr 2093-1944, written in the author's custom Ü programming language. It reverse-engineers proprietary data formats and recreates game logic to provide a modern, high-resolution, cross-platform drop-in replacement executable. The project is technically impressive for its custom language and manual reverse engineering, but its utility is limited to fans of the original game.

Target audience: game preservation enthusiasts and retro gamers
