#273Works really well on a tablet (iPad), which is quite rare for JS games, I’ve found.

I think it's the curvature of the world that's making it run so well on mobile. There's never to much models on-screen to draw.
Don’t neglect that 2020+ mobile chips are better at graphics than PlayStation 4.
Even if it is only true in theory, it is still amazing to know.

#275Super nice game. Anyway, I hit a border where the stream of water ends. Has someone checked the topology? It's a sphere or just a rectagle with an impossible curvature in both directions?

#276A very cool game! I just wish I could look around while standing still. Well done.

#277I don't play games. I clicked the link and played through the entire game. With a little work you could turn this into a modern Myst-type game, with a compelling story and atmosphere and mysteries/puzzles. I think this would be really fantastic.
> I don't play games.
Like ever? Are you talking about any sort of game or you mean strictly "video games"?

Fun quip but doesn't seem to be true in practice (if we're talking strictly smartphones, not tablets).
PS4 specs: ~1.84 TFLOPS FP32, 18 GCN CUs @ 800 MHz, 8 GB GDDR5 @ 176 GB/s.
I think maybe some released-yesterday phone might get close on spikes/bursts, but not on any sustained loads, like gaming, nor would the beat the PS4 on image quality either.

#279Lovely game, it was over too soon!
The speech sound effects and environments reminded me of Stray a lot. I miss that game so much.
