First Person Shooter - Under 100KBs of Code

Posted by michael on from the waste-not-want-not dept.

Cariad Ilmara writes "For those of you old-timers who spent days & nights trying to get your code fit into 64Kb, here's the first beta of .the .produkkt's next FPS: .kkrieger. Moderately beautiful, what's impressive is it can fit inside the UT2004 readme. The demo is 96Kb zipped. All textures are procedural and generated at startup. Screenshots available here, here, here, here, and here. You still need a relatively recent computer (~1.4Ghz, 512MB RAM) and a DirectX8 GPU (Windows required)."

    Looks to me like it was run through a code obfuscator... sure, you could write code with 1 and 2 letter vars for everything, but would you want to?
