Some feedback: 1. I spent a while clicking and dragging and not realizing that it works by scrolling. 2. There's no way to tell what's clickable. At first I just clicked on the guy in the cage which sent me to the 2D website and I thought that was it. I didn't realize that you can scroll down to see other stuff until much later.

Thanks for the feedback! Planning on adding an indication to scroll, and some sort of effect for clickable items. Also planning to remove the boat/cage taking you to other page, it made sense in a previous version of the site.

Does anyone remember that mid-2000s, 3D competitor to Flash? i think the name started with A like Ankh or something like that but I could be wildly off. It had an IDE and basically ran as a plugin in the browser. It died a quiet death. This site kinda sorta reminds me of that. Forget what it's called - if someone does, please post more info!

Maybe one of these? https://www.gamedev.net/forums/topic/297894-good-3d-browser-...

Your description also made me think of babylon js, but that was later.

Also maybe java applets?

Cool site, as somebody else has pointed out it's not entirely clear what to do once you land on the site.

I don't know how easy it is to accomplish with React Three Fiber, but something as simple as having paving `cursor: pointer` on links would be great, as well as an indicator that they'll open in a new tab (typically conveyed through the little box with an arrow going top right).

Fun little project though, I've always wanted to try something similar in the browser.

I also built a 3D portfolio website[1] using React and react-three-fiber but I took a different approach design-wise, the HTML content is scrollable like a normal website but the 3D scene subtly matches the perspective of the screen as you scroll.

Btw that site runs horribly in chrome on a pixel 9. The frame rate is low and scrolling has lots of jank. Also the page width is just a little bit wider than my screen width, so there is horizontal scrolling as well.

nice site. one suggestion - it took me too long to realize I needed to scroll down to see your stuff. maybe a little ghost arrow pointing down might help others

Thanks! Going to work on some features to help with this soon! Something like a scroll indicator, pointer is also a great idea for clickable item! The arrow indicator idea I also like!
