Are you just stripping the binaries and zipping them? Or are you doing something else as well?

I'm stripping them and them zipping them.

I'm also packing them like this:

But that's something that I could do myself. You don't have to bother ;)

Ah ok. I was going to suggest using UPX, as it decreases the file size further https://upx.github.io/

Actually UPX doesn't work for Godot binaries correctly

I didn't know about UPX. I just followed what the main developers do :)

UPX breaks the export templates, so it's not worth using.
