POV: You scanned this one Qr Code:
Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life� He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful� the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
who else scanned the QR code before clicking on the video
Ay that QR at the beginning says "Subscribe to MattKC" I scanned it
Genesis does what Nintendon't
STOP IT "DEEZ NUTS! HA! GOTEEEM"
5:09 I actually wrote this same code on linux, and it came out only 16 KB
Thumbnail says, Nope, this isn't the game. You'll have to watch the video for that 😉
BRO MADE ME CONVERT HIS HEX DATA INTO WORDS AND I GOT GARBAGE
Procrastination goes BRRRR
0:34 – "Well this is annoy"
0:39 – "Why the fuck did i choose to do this oh god"
hackers: *Thanks for the tip.*
I was curious about what the qr codes shown in the vid ACTUALLY mean. In order they are:
– Subscribe to MattKC
– Genesis does what Nintendon't
– DEEZ NUTS! HA! GOTEEEM

Jeez that last one was long…
can it run doom
Do .kkreiger. it's 96kb
This actually helped me to use it for my carrd website since I didn't know what to use for creating those codes… now I need to learn about bar codes
who else fell for the thumbnail
Easy to program game on qr code ( on scratch)
https://yt3.ggpht.com/A4R5j7sscJWTU0NwxoUSBQm4hcVfH7De8jrukuQ_05ITM-lNx5ENqR8zm7LFQXjkmiKj7pF85iBIfklyOg=s64-k-nd
we can made an autorun virus with this, but unfortunately we already live in 2023
.cia file moment

"can you fit an entire game into a qr code?"
* clicks video *
"yes"
thank you sir
* leaves video *
Is there anyways to do this but have the game run on an android phone?
Matt you genius. One of your QR codes says,

Genesis does what Nintendon't

DEEZ NUTS! HA! GOTEEEM
Imagine… Doom in a QR
never knew markplier was so professional in programming
Nope, this isn't the game. You'll have to watch the video for that 😉 the qr said that
Next make ark: survival evolved and each of its dlcs on the smallest qr size
Can it… run doom?
Why are QRs getting bigger
stop wasting our time some poeple are dying while watching show needey content
Super Mario Bros original?
I watched this video a while ago but this video is really good so I'll watch it again
One KB short of fitting a version of Minecraft into a QR code.
Thats a qr code for the story of wizard of oz by L frank baum
2030: emulating doom on a 3D QR code
I love these high effort videos of guys doing random seemingly impossible stuff no one asked for but everyone is curious to see. I catch myself watching a lot of these videos lately
Imagine doing on a phone💀
at 3:51 the qr code says DEEZ NUTS! HA! GOTEEEM
nice.
This triggered a memory from my childhood, the Texas Instruments Magic Wand Speak & Learn. Basically it was a unit that had a barcode reading wand and a speaker and built-in speech synthesis. Pretty amazing tech for a kid in the early 80s. So you could get various books for it and you'd scan each bit of words and it'd say it out loud. It also could do some sound effects another stuff. Here's someone showing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqWKku8RYdY
I like that the qr code at the start says Subscribe to MattKC
The answer is at 0:00. Thank me later
Its not dartar its pronounced day-ta
Hey scan the qr code in the thumbnail. I scanned it😂 and said this -Nope, this isn't the game. You'll have to watch the video for that 😉
From the C source code you had given in the website you mentioned in the description, I am getting error while trying to compile it in Dev C++, the error is: collect2.exe Id returned 1 exit status. Can anyone explain why am I getting this error?
0:00 that scared me
So, I'm in school for Cybersecurity. The realization that you can store malware in qr codes made me smile. So many people don't realize that these innocent looking codes can actually be horribly malicious! Don't scan QR codes you don't know the source of!
You keep saying that humans writing assembler can always outperform computers running compilers but i just don’t believe it. Compilers can do some insane optimisations provided you give them appropriate hints and don’t try to overspecify (I’m looking at you, register keyword). It probably wouldn’t have helped here but just as an example of how powerful compilers are, look into LTO.
Nope, this isn't the game. You'll have to watch the video for that 😉
It this if you scan the QR code
Not guilty for spoiling
You should have done it before reading the comments
Cool idea! How far can you push this?
