This little scorched earth type beauty was something me and friends battered the hell out of. I can't confirm the size, but judging by the few sprites and simple gameplay it ain't that big. But tons of fun.

Snake II for the Nokia 6310i (with a generous 30kb for OS and everything else) deserves a mention just for being so addictive

I wonder what's the smallest game in the current era that was pressed onto physical media.

apparently sekiro was notably small in filesize, but no idea what would actually be the smallest

there's often limited edition physical media runs of small indie games so Kero Blaster at 20mb is very likely the winner on PS4
