I'm blown away by being able to drop in on it on my smartphone seamlessly! My phone got noticibly warm during play.

Thank you! Yes, making it available on mobile devices was one of our priorities from the start (even though the desktop experience remains the best one). Phones do tend to heat up when rendering complex WebGL applications.

I am very much impressed by this project. The smoothly rendering on the browser, stunning graphics and captivating music create an immersive journey. And I always love to discover some Easter eggs. Bravo!

Thanks hackton. Really appreciate it!

While creating Equinox, it frequently felt like we were working on tiny details that hardly anyone would notice. But ultimately I believe that immersion largely relies on the accumulation of all these small additions.

Thanks for the feedback! We used the Three.js WebGL library and a custom-built game engine for the various interactions, pathfinding and game logic. We modeled the scenes in Blender and SideFX Houdini, and also baked lightmaps with Blender.

At breakfast so I can't play right now, but those are some buttery-smooth animations on a new Android running Firefox. Nice work.
