Nice challenge, plenty of 8 and 16 bits games to get inspired from.

#22- challenge should be renamed to "build a 3d first person shooter that fits on a single floppy disk" - now that would be very interesting to see

#23Until relatively recently in computing history, games (and all other programs) were small. Hell, Pokemon Gold fits un a floppy trivially compressed, together with a working GBC emulator. I can trivially fit rePalm unto a floppy and leave enough space for a great PalmOS RTS - "Warfare Inc"
Off-topic: regarding Windows NT emulation challenge, now IA64 and AXP32/64 target are also somehow filled.

#25I was an avid fan of 64k demoscene intros, so this fills me with joy. In fact, 96k is plenty of space for fun, even 20 years ago: https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=12036
