i dont think that can be done. the exe is already compiled and it cant be decompiled _________________

executables can be decompiled, but not easily.
Does this game have open source code? _________________
im almost positive there is a way to decompile it i might have the programs i just need the help with the conversion. do you know of any tutorials or maybe some one that can help me?
how do you know if it is open source unless you mean it came decompiled and i had to compile it.

Cause if its not a homebrew game(not licensed by an actual company) than I can decompile it. If it is a licensed game the EULA will say that decompiling is not allowed, and I'm not going to risk it. _________________
