I've been working on a surfing game on my spare time for the past year. The idea is to keep it closer to the real sport, focusing on pumping, carving, nose-riding, etc. I shared a …

KSPS was my favourite surfing game growing up. What I dislike about it though is the infinite/perfect waves (always a truck-sized barrel opened, you can do tricks anywhere, almost …

I believe realistic fluid dynamics in the scale of a full breaking wave is unheard of for real time graphics, there's just no way to do it in 30-60FPS (I could be wrong tho!) What …

Thank you! And you can change visualizations in the dropdown, there is a special one for Pluto's eccentric orbit :)

Shameless plug, but if you're into astronomical scales you might like this little visualization tool I've built recently! https://github.com/pedrosbmartins/downtoearth

Those are great ideas! It's relatively simple to build both of them using the project's custom JSON schema. I'll give it a go when I have some time.
