A proof of concept for the Veikkaus "Next Level of Interactive Gaming Experiences" WebGPU/WebWorker challenge for Junction 2023. Built with Typescript, Sveltekit and Rust and using BabylonJS for WebGPU rendering.
Features include but are not limited to:
- Transforming DOM text into physics objects with a WebWorker
- Physics simulation with Matter.js
- Rendering with WebGPU
- Thrilling and innovative gameplay with a scratch off game that's handled in the backend (awesome graphics included !!)
Future plans:
- Move all rendering to the GPU
- Utilize WebGPU compute shaders for physics simulation
- Cooler effects like attractors and boids that can react to whatever is happening in the DOM
- Ditch external renderer (BabylonJS) and write a custom one
- Font deformation utilizing the physics engine
- More indepth gameplay
-
More awesome graphics(update: no need for this, the current graphics can't be beat 😎)
