Awesome, congrats on your 2:49 run. Sure, we'll definitely let you know. Probably won't happen but I would love adding a level editor. Thanks!

Wow, learning that people are sharing speedruns on YouTube totally made my day!

Thanks for reporting!

It's wonderful to know that your child enjoyed our little game. Thanks so much for sharing that with us!

Unfortunately, we have no plans to add new controls to the game at this time.

Thanks so much! With a bit of luck and talking to the right people at the right time, we got our start when Mozilla gave us the opportunity to create technical demos for the releas…

Amazing, as the developer of this game, I wasn't even aware that you could make it under 3 minutes!

Thanks! Sorry there's currently no plan to make it open source at the moment.

Thanks. There's no current plan to turn this into an actual game but I agree it would neat.

I should have said that it's not officially supported. For client work, we prefer not to choose an engine that may not work on a few devices and which we have no ability to fix.

Unity WebGL is not supported on mobile and we needed the experience to be playable on both desktop and mobile browsers. However, mobile browsers will be supported with Unity 6 web …

Nothing complicated, we simply have initialization code that parses the GLTF scene on startup by iterating over the children of a specific group, and creating Rapier colliders for …

The main draw of the Unity Editor for us is how it auto-reloads assets, like 3D models, as soon as the asset file is updated. So the workflow is having your DCC app open in which y…

Thanks and sorry you got stuck, we made our best effort to prevent these situations from happening but apparently they still do.

The rendering engine is using Three.js which is a WebGL library. The physics/collision detection code is using Rapier through a WebAssembly module available on npm [1], which means…

The physics engine we are using is Rapier 3D which does a lot of the heavy lifting, even though we had to tweak a lot the physics properties of the ball and surfaces in order to ge…

Yeah, sometimes the ball does some crazy things due to the way collision detection works. We tried to optimize and avoid most of the issues but it can happen.

There is code in place to respawn the ball if we detect that it's stuck inside a block or wall, which can occur due to frame drops during the physics simulation. I'll try to reprod…

Hello HN! We’re a small creative studio specializing in real-time 3D experiences. Netlify approached us to design and build an interactive experience to celebrate reaching 5 millio…

Thank you for the bug report, I just fixed it.

Yes this is an old project that we did back in 2015, but thank you for the broken link report, I just fixed it. Also, thanks for your feedback (which I agree with!) but we currentl…

The same engine runs on both desktop and mobile, pathfinding performance wasn't an issue on mobile. We knew from the beginning that it was important for mobile controls to be "smar…

Oh I loved the Journeyman Project as a kid and I didn't think of it at all when creating Equinox, but thanks to your comment I'm now starting to think it had some unconscious influ…
