Full 3D game engine compiles to 35MB WebAssembly—smaller than Facebook's homepage, Python Docker base image at 144MB; WASM adoption stalled despite 10x size advantage over containers.

Docker images are hundreds of MB; a full game engine compiles to 35MB WASM

I exported a game skeleton to WebAssembly a few hours ago and was surprised by the artifact size. Full 3D engine – GL Compatibility renderer, Jolt physics, GDScript runtime, Ink narrative interpreter. The binary: 35MB. Runs in any browser, zero install.Facebook’s homepage loads 44MB.
