pretty much took this generic platformer and got rid of all of the bloat (extra stuff that literally does nothing for gameplay), most of it being the pointless intro and level transition (this is a generic platformer, the heck you need an intro for) went from 28.7 MB down to 8.2 MB (28.57% of original size) for comparison NDS Moment has a file size of 32.8 MB (although that does include my reference assets) There should be NO REASON that a GENERIC PLATFORMER of all projects has the same file size as a 2 minute animation
honestly i would put credit here but this is a generic platformer what do you expect
