Score: 8.5/10 (Innovation: 9, Technical: 9, Documentation: 9, Utility: 7)

Decomp Academy is an interactive platform that teaches matching decompilation for GameCube games by having users reconstruct C code from PowerPC assembly, which is then graded byte-for-byte by the original Metrowerks CodeWarrior compiler. Its novel approach of using the real 2001 compiler for live feedback, combined with 258 lessons derived from authentic game functions, makes it a powerful educational tool for reverse engineering and compiler behavior understanding.

Target audience: reverse engineers, game decompilation enthusiasts, compiler engineers
