• demotool Windows Crinkler by Loonies [web] & TBC
• A small release, but nevertheless significant for 1k coders: Crinkler 2.2!
  
  - Decompression code size for /TINYHEADER reduced by 6 bytes. Big thanks to TomCat for showing us the way to these optimizations! The one-byte LOOP optimization independently suggested by bitRAKE above is included in these 6 bytes.
  
  - When a /TINYHEADER intro was recompressed, its static memory requirements would increase by 16MB every time. This bug is now fixed.

• demotool Windows MacOSX Intel Clinkster by Loonies [web]
• Thank you for the Linux compatibility patch!
  
  I can't put the code up in a repository unfortunately, since it contains the VST2 SDK, which means it will probably be taken down by Steinberg. :(

• 4k Windows In The End by Fairlight [web]
• Great visual composition and colors. It somehow feels like it has been seen before though...

• 4k Windows Night Mist by NuSan
• Looks OK, but the music and camera movements are annoying.

• It is unlikely that the indexed version will be any smaller after compression, actually. Crinkler quickly learns to recognize the
  Code:call dword [function]
  pattern, so after just a few of such calls, they compress to less than 2 bytes each. The indexed ones will not be significantly smaller, since there is just as much entropy in them.
  
  Also, this trick will not work for 1k (that is, when using /TINYIMPORT), since in that case the imported function pointers are spread out over a larger area, so a single byte is not enough to index them. In a sense, /TINYIMPORT stores more information (the function hash) in each call instead of including a 4 byte hash (not shown in the report) for each imported function.

  Any chance for a switch which denies stripping unused code (/OPT:NOREF equivalent)?

  
  That would bring in lots of unused parts, especially from the lib files. And it would still only include the imports that are actually referenced in some of the code. This doesn't sound like it is what you want.

  I'd like to mess with ImportTable by hardcoded offsets (it's a 3 byte call instead of 6 bytes), but this makes declared but indirectly called functions to be stripped away from ImportTable...

  
  So you want a way to explicitly include a function in the import table even though nothing refers to it, and then somehow access the index at which it is placed, so you can use it in your code. Is this correct?
  
  I have actually thought about adding a feature like this, since I will probably need it for one of my own projects (to index dynamically into the import table based on a bytecode value). No plans for when it will be implemented, though. :)
