Hi HN, we're Christian (ChrisMischler) and Raphael (raphco) of Deskimo ( https://www.deskimo.com/ ). We provide on-demand access to professional workspaces, where users rent desks by the minute. We've started with Singapore and Hong Kong as our initial markets, with the intention to expand into other markets soon. Raphael and I have been working remotely for most of the past 10 years. During the pandemic, all of our…

Amazing work guys!!! You should expand to Europe next!

Hi HN, we’re Ben and Alex, founders of Muse HQ ( https://muse.place/ ). We help anyone build immersive 3D websites. Alex and I started building 3D websites because we were bored of building the same old static websites that we have been contracted to do for the past 6 years since high school. Building websites sucked and was boring. Fortunately, Alex discovered the power of three.js. Between us, Alex was the first on…

Just add strafe jumping and a rocket launcher

Great work! I'm a big fan of this idea, and as others have mentioned, it's a little reminiscent of the promise of VRML back in the day. Or even of PlayStation Home or Second Life, but more accessible, since it's right there in your browser.

I've seen some comments about the performance, and I just wanted to comment that I just tried the site out on an old Chromebook Acer R11 (Celeron N3150) and while the perf on the opening environment is a little bit hitchy, the Balloonski room for example ran perfectly well. Little machines are capable of a whole heck of a lot these days! Even in the browser!

Nice work!

This caught my interest because I've been dabbling with 3D graphics for the web lately. Some feedback: If your product is a no-code editor, why not make that the focus of your website? Squarespace for example doesn't take you to a generic website and asks you to sign up from there, they take you to their editor to start building your own site immediately. You could add examples somewhere else on the site. Generally a…

I don't agree in this case. I don't want to start editing, I want to know what the heck a "3D website" is. Now I know, and it turns out it's not something I want to spend any time using.

Your instructions initially say to use WASD to move, which is inconvenient for those of us with our pointing device on the left. But it turns out the arrow keys work as well, and the in-site instructions say so (when you manage to click the instructions button, which is quite hard with a trapped pointer).

How can we find out more about y'all? Do you have a company website with the background? I just popped into the discord. I basically build babylonjs/threejs full stack worlds every day... I'd like to learn more.

How do we learn more about y'all? Do you have a company website with some background, blog posts, etc.? I just hopped in your discord. I basically build full stack vr worlds in babylonjs/threejs every day. Curious to learn more about your company and your team. You can take a look at my work here: https://delta.center/ and here: https://delta.center/gevurah

what browser were you on? Your mouse pointer should be replaced by our cursor if there were no bugs.

I agree with this, when I look at the site I want to know how the editor works and what the pricing model is. You can include a link to a demo and the showcase sites elsewhere. It also feels what you're trying to sell is full 3D website templates, when in reality it would probably be more viable as an embed or a section of a bigger site. An example of a successful site that is built on similar tech is decentraland

agree, i have taken a shot and built a landing page here: https://muse.place/muse
