Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 8, Utility: 5)

Strataris is a macOS first-person shoot-'em-up that generates all assets—terrain, sound, music, fonts, voice—entirely in code, resulting in a sub-1 MB game with zero asset files. Its innovative combination of procedural generation, a custom synthesizer, and retro aesthetic within a native Mac app makes it a standout example of demoscene-inspired engineering.

Target audience: game developers, indie game enthusiasts, mac users
