TL;DR Summary

The leaked source code of the original Wipeout game has led to a near-total rewrite and remaster by developer Dominic Szablewski. He rewrote the game's rendering, physics, and sound, among other things, and reduced the code from 40,699 lines to 7,731. The rewritten version can be compiled for multiple platforms and is available to play on Szablewski's server. Despite the potential legal implications, Szablewski hopes that Sony will either allow the project to continue or create an official remaster.
