We've got some of you for a moment, but don't worry!
Defold is and always will be free.
We can say this, because it's in the objectives of the Defold Foundation and it can't be changed, under Swedish law.

After universal atlas, from 8.45MB to 8.54MB; Universal Arch APK/AAB (Armv7 and armv9)
After Universal Atlas, 4.44MB, armv7 android APK/AAB arch only
Before Universal Atlas, 8.4MB, Universal Arch APK/AAB (Armv7 and armv9)
Same game, 1 level, 5 music tracks (uncompressed) in Godot, 179MB, 84MB with uncompressed music
Did a "soft" rework of how graphics in my game are handled, from tile sources to an atlas. More than 128 sprites exported and reimported. Took me 4 days! Saved a single Draw call lol

Did a test to see a difference in size... 4.44MB!!!
