Doom3 Gangnam Style in WebGL • Hacker News Board

This is just great. Enjoyed it - posted it on fb and ready to watch it again - then the server is apparently overloading. Wonder what the traffic is like.

Not only a great idea but also free load testing for the playcanvas.com guys. Their appserver appears to have melted: the CTO's hands are currently a blur on his keyboard!

Very creative and entertaining. I can't stop watching the middle monster. Something I didn't realize at first was the ability to use the movement keys - seeing different angles is pretty cool. As another comment mentioned, the sync could definitely be tighter, but otherwise well done.

We've spun up a new, higher capacity server. Enjoy!!! :)

Now running on a larger instance.

Cloud win! (for the moment...)

Impressive animation - where did you the mocap data from, or all animated by hand?
