A software crew exploring in public

We build to see what technology can do.

Games, worlds and tools from a software crew making things for fun, for learning and for sharing.

Runtime worldsRaw browser APIs, authored experiences

The Lake and WAKE use procedural geometry, shaders and synthesized sound without an engine or asset pipeline.

Useful extractionPatterns earn a second life

Arcbridge and retro-kit keep the parts that became useful beyond the experiment that exposed them.

Implementation notesFindings with proof attached

GPU timing, semantic test failures and story-system constraints—short records from code that actually ran.

On the workbench

Actual projects first. Different visual languages are welcome; the site gives each one a clear frame instead of repainting it.

A dark forest path opening toward warm evening light in The Lake.

The Lake

You wake beneath a closing canopy and follow the path toward the last light. Every image and sound is generated while the piece runs: raw WebGL 2, Web Audio, no engine, no textures and no recordings.

Behind the worlds

The strange bits that made it work.

A boat that fooled its tests. A sky that lights a ship. A harmless thing that makes a forest terrifying. The problems, experiments and small discoveries behind the experience.
