A work-in-progress open source reimplementation of *Burnout 3: Takedown*.

## Goals

**Reburn 3** is a faithful recreation of *Burnout 3: Takedown* via reverse engineering the original game. It is not intended to be a byte-accurate decompilation, it is more akin to a rewrite (hence "open source reimplementation"). The code will be ported to use platform-independent libraries, and support high resolutions and frame rates.

</p>

The ultimate goal is to allow the Burnout community to easily expand and modify the game, adding content or running the game on new hardware.

## Method

Reburn 3 is currently playable on Windows (and Wine) utilizing [Cxbx-Reloaded](https://github.com/Cxbx-Reloaded/Cxbx-Reloaded) as a compatibility layer (see [Proof of Concept](https://github.com/reburndev/reburn3/releases/tag/proof-of-concept)). Eventually, as the game becomes fully reimplemented, it will become a fully portable/independent codebase with no dependency on any compatibility layers, however that will be fairly late in the process.
