Q: So how much of a game can you pack in to a 4 kilobyte executable?

A: Plenty

Cool, and a dying art. My second computer (Atari 64K) had huge letters across the box "What will you do with 64K?" I wish I still had the box; today's answer is "I'd probably malloc() it for a user name..."

A cynic might point out that these 4K wonders are running on a bloated JVM, but it is still impressive.
