Explain this, consolefags
Hey, it was 38 KB yesterday!
that ain't 283 you phony

Compression, procedural generation, and your addition of text.
>>319881171
but the text is white so it takes away pixels which means the image should be smaller
>>319880826
Why else do you think Mario can't go backwards, scrub?
>>319881569
artificial difficulty
It's 65 kilobytes

There's your problem.
Good optimization

this shows how shitty jpg is.
A repost of the a repost of reddit thread on 9gag. Why is this allowed?

Back then games were optimized, if they remade Mario 1 now it would require 5Ghz 16core-CPU and 4 high-end GPU's to even boot up.

yeah but at least itd have hdr and bloom
this is some deep shit

Thanks. It's not enough that I'm constantly linked to that horrible website but I see the same linked content reposted here. Why?
>>319880826
Here's the original size of the game. It's less than 4 kb
>>319888534
If 4 kb is the size of one screen, the game would have only 10 screens
>>319880826
idk
>>319888534
So then where do they keep all the code and extra levels then hmmm?
Answer me that mister computer gamer?
>>319880826
being this retarded
for the fucking retarded:
1) I can code an exe of less than 2kb that creates a file of 9GiB. Do you understand this concept?
2) the "game" is not coded to generate an image, there's no "image" displayed, the code tells things like "this will go there" and that's it, it doesnt generate an image. The size of the game depends on the code+the sprite size. the sprite size will be less than that image size, because it use patterns for like the background etc.
>>319888779
it's all kept in THE CLOUD, obviously
>>319889116
thank you mr obvious
>>319888696
That's not how programming work... They make 1 brick and copy paste it. The brick is still x amount of bites and it does not take more.
They make the graphics and then say "Put this brick there and there and ....". They dont draw an individual brick, Mario, item box for every screen.

How do they fit it there? Can Mario really jump that high?
>>319889116
Whayt?
>>319889141
Ooooh the cloud.
I get it now.
>>319888696
Each frame isn't saved so it can sustain 4 kb forever.
>>319889287
of course they fit in there, silly anon
don't question technology

But Mario came out before final fantasy 7?

Are you going to refute anything or just call him aa fuccboi
jpg the strongest
>>319889116
youre dumb if no image were displayed you wouldnt be able to see anything
>>319889287
Well, duh. They put it in the clouds since Mario can't jump that high. That way he can't mess with the code and make cheats.

It'd seriously be several megabytes in size, just because if they remade Mario 1 now it'd be done in Gamemaker, and that converts all images to supermassive PNG files 10x the size of the original game.
>>319889287
he gets there by climbing a vine, have you even played the game?
>>319890752
nah man theyd be using unity
>>319890763
I don't play games
