A short walking sim based on 3DGS that runs in the browser
Hi! I built a free short walking sim you that runs in the browser. I originally made this experience about 2-3 years ago in Unreal Engine. The resulting build was huge: over 6 GB to download in order to play for max 10 minutes. Needless to say there weren't that many people that ended up playing the game. Seeing the quality that's possible to achieve nowadays in the browser using gaussian splats, I recently got the idea to port it to a web-based experience. The result is that the whole game is a bit over 100 MB, and that's including about 20 MB of music and VO. Thanks to Spark's streamed LOD…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi! I built a free short walking sim you that runs in the browser. I originally made this experience about 2-3 years ago in Unreal Engine. The resulting build was huge: over 6 GB to download in order to play for max 10 minutes. Needless to say there weren't that many people that ended up playing the game. Seeing the quality that's possible to achieve nowadays in the browser using gaussian splats, I recently got the idea to port it to a web-based experience. The result is that the whole game is a bit over 100 MB, and that's including about 20 MB of music and VO. Thanks to Spark's streamed LOD system, you don't even have to have everything downloaded by the time you start playing. I've learned quite a bit about gaussian splats along the way, the main takeaway being that using splats for VFX inside a splat scene is still a bit of an unsolved problem (there's no way to decouple the VFX splats from the rest of the scene while keeping occlusion, and mixing static LOD'd splats with animated VFX splats leads to lag when LOD changes). Let me know if you have any feedback or questions, and I'll do my best to answer them later tonight or tomorrow. Cheers!

hi all, I've always wanted to make my own game, but couldn't afford a thousand-dollar adobe (flash+photoshop) license. I'm not a talented programmer, have no degree in CS. But I understand some elements of design. So I got me a copy of ImpactJS, and after about 5 months of steep learning curve (at least for me), I managed to come up with a game. I also integrated it with a highscore and badge system, similar to what you get at Kongregate. You need to login with Google/OpenID to earn badges/scores. link is: http://www.hotbazooka.com/privatejoe hope to hear some feedback/questions from you guys!
- ISI spent 6 years making a cool free game2015 · ▲151
Hey everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster. I've just reached beta in my game BoxByte Lyte. -What is it- It's a free 3d arcade game for hardcore players that uses color matching in interesting ways. Also it's a one button game, well movement and one button. Cool huh? The final release will be free too. -What I need- This is a very challenging game, so I really need to balance the difficulty so that it's still hard but not impossible. It would be great just to hear your experiences of the game and how far in it you got. -Where can I report bugs?-…
- ASA small browser game (PC only) built with Phaser 32025 · cubic-zombies.pages.dev · ▲9
Hi HN! This is my first game — something I’ve always wanted to do. It’s a small browser game built with Phaser 3, React, and the phaser template (https://github.com/phaserjs/template-react-ts/). I made it in 2 days (like 8 hours in total real time) using gemini-cli. About 90% of the code was generated with AI, but I learned a lot by making fine tweaks. It only works on PC since it’s a typical WASD + R (reload) shooter. I’d love feedback on: - Gameplay (is it fun, too hard?) - Ideas for new features Thanks in advance! ps: I used cubes as a prototype, but now I kind of…
- RARun any Llama model finetune and more, instantly2024 · featherless.ai · ▲7
Hi there, looking for feedback on my new project "Featherless.AI" The idea is to allow users to run all the models on hugging face instantly. Via the OpenAI API compatible endpoint. Why? Because its a real chore to download models and spin up GPUs, especially if you want to test multiple models. Not to mention GPUs cost multiple dollars an hour to rent. And if we want more people to use open source AI, we got to make it easier for them to try and play with all of them. So what if instead of spinning up dedicated GPUs per model (which is what every provider is doing) We can startup a LLM…

https://coffeegameonline.com/game/arch-rush-3d this game is heavily inspired from the viral hyper casual mobile Game. in which play runs in a certain direction until the screen is tap and direction changes, I love this Game very much for lot of hours, of never-ending levels and increasing difficulty The arc-rush is also based on the same functionality. Were you have to jump through floating platforms by jumping over them and each platform is placed zigzag towards the forward direction of the player. You have to wait until an arc is moving towards the right platform. One…
- IVI vibe-coded a custom WebGPU engine for my MMOFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲5
It took me about a week to vibe code this 3D game engine with Opus 4.6 that I intend to use as a replacement for Three.js and React Three Fiber in my browser MMORPG, Mana Blade. I was not expecting to be able to reach that point so easily, but pretty much every feature took somewhere between 30 minutes and 1 hour - 1 to 3 prompts on average. It is vibe-coded in the sense that I haven't looked at the code, but I am very careful with my prompts and constantly have Claude reviewing the codebase, looking for performance and code quality improvements. It can reach 2000 draw calls on recent…

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…
