I saw a video (youtube.com/watch?v=ExwqNr…) of someone doing something similar a while ago and that stuck around in my head. My friend's GF's dog got lost a couple days ago, and they were printing out posters with QR codes that linked to the image

Can you fit a whole game into a QR code?

That got me thinking, maybe I could do what MattKC did and embed the image into the QR code directly. Of course, you can't open it without special software because opening binaries from QR codes is generally a huge security risk. But I thought it'd be a fun project, and it was!

The video is amazing and I highly recommend checking it out! P.S. If you're impressed by my very high intellect, I'm looking for a part-time job Also, the dog has been found

Lol, the process for compressing executables is very different to compressing images. Also the project doesn't work out of the box on Windows anyway, so have fun converting it over
