Ambitious developer showcases slick triple-level Quake-like game stored in tiny 64KB executable — every game asset tucked inside what could be a ‘rounding error’ in modern app payload terms

Developer Daivuk has created QUOD, a remarkable 64KB 'boomer shooter' reminiscent of Quake, featuring 3 levels, 1 boss fight, 4 enemies, 4 weapons, and power-ups all compressed into a tiny executable. The game showcases impressive optimization techniques like action-based textures and a custom VM for minimal file size. Despite its small footprint, QUOD requires modern hardware to run smoothly, offering a nostalgic yet polished FPS experience. Daivuk hints at future optimizations for the game, promising continued innovation in the realm of compact game development.
