"99Things" -- 2025 CGA (QB45) game (Miscellaneous)

Hello Rugxulo,

Nice game.

Minor gripe: it seems to me the game executable was compressed twice, first with exepack (or similar), then with UPX. It might be possible to improve the compressed program size if one can skip the exepack step...

Thank you!
