Smacker is a legacy video codec and playback technology developed by RAD Game Tools, now part of Epic Games. It was designed for fast playback of 256-color, 8-bit video and animation in games, especially on older or resource-constrained hardware. RAD Game Tools continues to document and license Smacker primarily for legacy applications and specialized low-CPU environments.
