Could you build this?

No This project requires reverse engineering Motorola 68000 assembly instructions from a commercial Sega Genesis ROM and reimplementing the game loop and mechanics in SFML.

What it would actually take: Requires disassembly tools like Ghidra/IDA Pro targeting M68000 binary blobs, reverse-engineering undocumented tilemaps, scripts, and sound drivers, and rewriting the runtime in C++ using SFML. Demands specialized knowledge in retro game architecture and binary decompilation.
