I think given the extreme limitation of this jam, we should share any tiny dependencies anyone discovers as useful so we can all learn new ways to develop tiny games.

Personally, I can't find any binary dependencies for video or sound within the size limit, so I'm using HTML5's Canvas for drawing and plain JavaScript to do game logic and sound. This way I can have one .html file with inline scripts alongside small .mp3 files for a browser playable game.

I had the same idea. Pure javascript in a canvas. So far I've been trying to get to know my way around drawing stuff, taking input, etc. with this, and if there's any time left by the time I do, I suppose I'll throw together something that qualifies as gameplay at the end.

That's basically me too. I've never developed a game using JavaScript before, so if nothing else it will be a good learning opportunity slash huge pain 😂

Well, languages I'm most proficient are hard to deploy (Python) or creates big executables (Go). Didn't even start yet due very limited amount of spare time, but I think about D and TinyCurses.

edit: just found out that TC relies on SDL :(

I'm using C with GLFW, but sadly that fill about 50Kb with just a "Hello, World!" message, so not much space for game or assets. Anyway that still lets you have "vector" graphics, or even some very very tiny bitmaps, but certainly, fitting sound would be too difficult ;)
