In the original version we made three years ago, you can also go swim under water (click symbol bottom right): http://labs.gooengine.com/pearl-boy/

I'm not sure that the water is meant to be inside the boat, but still great work !

Laggy sound on GTX 860M, maybe it's a problem with my sound card ? Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Yeah, sound was not smooth on my system too (750 Ti)

the water level penetrates the boat?

A way to fix this would be to render the boat and the water separately then merge the two images, but that feature may not be available on the engine that they're using for this simulation (goocreate.com)

Should not be hard to do at all. The engine is open source on github btw: https://github.com/GooTechnologies/goojs

Couldn't get the swimming to work on my Nexus unfortunately. Tapping on the icon of the boy with flippers did nothing. Cool demo otherwise!

Check out the forum at forum.goocreate.com and let us know what you think. We are looking for ways to improve the platform to make it easier for people to use and more open too.

Can someone please tell me why I should be excited about these demos? Am I not just seeing an OpenGL wrapper in the browser?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's a demo. So, yeah ...

And a very old one too. Look at the website for some really cool looking projects: goocreate.com
