Koding | Say goodbye to your localhost and code in the cloud. Online Code Editor - Codeanywhere. CODING FOR GOOD. Minecraft-ish WebGL Demo Makes You Wonder What's Possible in HTML5 - HTML5 Grind. Minecraft is the breakout indie game that combined simple game mechanics with an immersive, 3D sandbox experience.
A WebGL demo shows that such an experience can be made possible in the browser. In what is 850 lines of JavaScript combined with three.js, a leading WebGL library, visualization hacker AlteredQualia has recreated the basic Minecraft experience in the browser. There’s no interaction — no mining, monsters, or cute pigs or sheep — but you’re able to fly around using the W, A, S and D keys and by left- and right-clicking the mouse. Even though WebGL might not achieve the same performance and beauty of games such as Halo or StarCraft, focusing on game mechanics can make even the simplest demo fun.
