Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

I also tried crinkler, got it to link but the executable does apparently nothing.

Show HN: Micro LZMA decoder (x86 assembly code golf)
Crinkler [1] is a popular compressor-linker for 1--8 KB demos and its decompressor (partially embedded in a PE header) is probably around 1--200 bytes. Later efforts like oneKpaq [2] also have a comparable decompressor size.
If you don't mind a shameless plug and a slightly larger decompressor (about 500 bytes in JS) for better compression, my Roadroller [3] might fit the bill as well.

Source code for 4kb demoscene production “Elevated” released (2016)
Crinkler, the compressing linker, is really interesting. This link inadvertently shows the file_id.diz for Crinkler rather than anything relevant to the rest of Elevated; but honestly I always found the Crinkler stuff to be fascinating.
The project lives on today: https://github.com/runestubbe/Crinkler and http://crinkler.net/

A somewhat similar project is Crinkler, a compressing linker.

UPX anti-unpacking techniques in IoT malware
Crinkler is designed to help make extremely small EXE files (such as around 4K in size), and replaces the Link step in building a program. It uses otherwise unused space in the EXE header, and uses a different method than the typical way to import DLL functions.

help packing sound in <4k
Gopher also made 64klang, and in the examples here they're using mmsystem to push samples to the soundcard, so I'd be inclined to think that's a pretty good way to do it (if not the best way)

Procedural 3D mesh generation in a 64kB intro
The intro was released in 2017. We published the first part of the making off in 2018 (was discussed on HackerNews here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16842576). A few days ago, I remembered I had an unpublished draft and decided to finalize it.
We use OpenGL for rendering and the code is written in C++. We published the source code of other intros of GitHub. For example, this one should give you a good idea of how we do it (also we modernized our engine since that): https://github.com/laurentlb/Ctrl-Alt-Test/tree/master/F
For audio, we used the synth 64klang - https://github.com/hzdgopher/64klang
