Yes. Shiny's 1997 shooter MDK gets a native C# and SDL3 port with stereo 3D and phone VR by nautilusbits. It's playable now, and it runs natively on PC rather than through an emulator.

Is the MDK PC port an emulator?

No. It's a native build of the game's code for PC (a decompilation, static recompilation or native port), so it runs like a PC game.

Shiny's 1997 shooter MDK gets a native C# and SDL3 port with stereo 3D and phone VR

nautilusbits' mdk-sdl is a port of Shiny Entertainment's 1997 sniper-shooter MDK to C# on SDL3, built from reverse engineering of the original game's data files and executable (MDKD3D.EXE). It follows the creator's earlier Godot port, mdk-godot, but renders and collides like the original, with Kurt moving through each arena's BSP trees using the original's box sweeps. The creator marks it 1.0 at about 99% complete. It adds optional stereo 3D in several formats, a Cardboard-style phone VR viewer with head tracking, and gamepad support for Xbox, PlayStation and Switch pads. Release 1.2.4 (28 Oct) ships builds for Windows, macOS on Apple Silicon, Linux and Android. No MDK data is included: it reads the levels, textures and sound from your own installed copy.
