5mb rar 500mb game
that was some good compression

or a lot of repeating data in the game.
@alyx my most impressive instance was when the download for virtuaverse was like <100mb but unpacked to a gigabyte or two. i dunno how they made a pixel art adventure game that big but they did.
@icedquinn @alyx 8bit art upscaled to 4k (nearest neighbor) for maximum art quality

I HATE modern pixel art games. Take early Final Fantasy games I-VI. Those would clearly fall under pixel art. They are by no means simple games, but they fit on a 8mb rom cartridge and can flawlessly be emulated on a 10 year old smartphone and decades old computers.
Where's that level of efficiency in modern pixel art games?
