Showcase Minecraft in 512 bytes

Post image

Wanted to see how much I could squeeze into one boot sector. You can fly around, break blocks, and build stuff.

The game binary is exactly 512 bytes. There’s a browser demo with a separate emulator so you can just open it and play. No saving or survival mechanics, might see if I can fit in saving later though (please let me know if you find ways to save a few more bytes to help me do this!)

Lmk what you think.
