Opening this in Brave on an iPad immediately crashed and rebooted the device. I don't think that has ever happened to it.
An iOS device crashing and rebooting because of something you open in your browser? Now that's something completely new and unheard of. /s

#162Underrated thing that I haven't seen mentioned is how great the gameplay is, I was able to play without a mouse using only arrows and space bar, and the camera never felt clunky, which is rare for a 3d game. Haven't tried on mobile though

#163After 15 minutes of trying I managed to reach the roof of the house you can climb, and managed to take a cool screenshot :) https://imgur.com/Vq8i8Yz Underrated thing that I haven't seen mentioned is how great the gameplay is, I was able to play without a mouse using only arrows and space bar, and the camera never felt clunky, which is rare for a 3d game.

#164I looove this. I agree with the other commenters that this has a special feeling. And that the future for web games is bright. (For as long as Google is spearheading features with Chrome.) I guarantee this game wasn't built with Unity: 1) Unity bad for building WebGL games. It does multiple conversions to make a WebGL build. Unity offers live editing in its application, but that doesn't apply to web; whereas modern t…
They announced at their Unite conference a few months ago they were gonna add proper mobile support for it. Nice to see them investing.
Also shameless plug for [https://spatial.io]. With Unity’s URP we can get near AAA visual quality in the browser. Plus hosted multiplayer, chat, native web/mobile/vr apps, etc.
The future is bright for web and no install! And with App Store’s 30% cut the economic winds are at our back!

Agree that close to the metal threeJS gets you best performance but don’t sleep on Unity WebGL.

> I guarantee this game wasn't built with Unity It looks like you're right - the announcement tweet credits threejs and houdini [1]. I measured 13MB downloaded, of which most are fairly bloated "assets" (here's a 3MB blurry png, for some reason [2]), so the "engine" itself looks to be less than 1MB.

That blurry png may be the terrain, height map?

#168Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yeah, the characters have legs !
If I implemented avatars in social VR I would also avoid legs. No legs is better than bad legs and good legs is very hard to achieve. So the "no legs" thing is the correct design decision in many cases.
What do you think of the leg quality in this game?

#170I wanted to talk with the other kids, I wanted to go over that hill. I wanted to feel the end of the day and the sunset. I feel the sea is somewhere near.
