I thought about turrets, but I think the elements I put in (cubes, buttons, and plasma balls) allowed for more and better puzzles than turrets would have.

I like how the twitter one is titled "Portal's physics engine rebuilt in 50KB—on a graphing calculator" and then right below it: "Portal's physics engine rebuilt in 25KB—on a graphing calculator" and in reality it is under 16KB XD

Actually IIRC there's the app, which is 16k, then there's the appvar, which hovers around 9k :P

What I find funny is how Omnimaga is called a gaming forum. We are nowhere near just a gaming forum anymore :P

Yeah they originally thought it was 50K because somebody on reddit said that, but then I corrected them that it was around 25K if you count the app and the appvar together

And that was probably due to those silly .8xk filesizes
