    It seems they’re including the runtime in the size, and have prohibited web based games for this reason (unless you can find a browser that fits in 1.44MB). Submissions must be a native executable (I’m assuming for x86)

      Well technically since it compiles to wasm you just need a wasm runtime and a rendering system. Not a whole browser. Some people have reported getting wasm-4 games running on microcontrollers.

        I’m sure you could do it with a standalone runtime, but it will just be overhead compared to compiling directly to x86, at least for the purposes of this competition. I’m a fan of WASM for a lot of other applications tho
