This is a port of my 256byte TIC-80 game "Skip Ahead" to hand optimized WebAssembly. The resulting module is exactly 512 bytes in size.
I did the port as a code example while developing a simple programming language to make writing WebAssembly by hand more comfortable while retaining full control over the resulting code. The source code to this game can be found here, but be warned that a) the language is still very much WIP and b) the code is optimized for size, not readability.

Wow, I played a lot of Skyroads when I was a kid. Cool game in such a small size budget.

SKYROADS! I forgot that existed, what an amazing game

Can you port this to a boot rom?
