Current installed build - Native Goombas (2026-10-16)
Status: PARTIALLY VERIFIED. Full PC port remains incomplete.

Native Goombas now spawn, render, walk/chase and hurt Yoshi on contact.
Three original profiles are registered;15normal Goombas verified in course6.
Small/large runtime behavior, swallowing, eggs, stomping and rewards remain
unverified. Two focused tongue routes did not establish capture.

How to check: double-click Play Goomba Development Preview.cmd, dismiss the
tutorial and approach the first slope. This uses separate preview saves with
only the introduction completed, no seeded stars or coin records.
Play Mario 64 DS.cmd still opens the original menu.
