Dungeon Fury is the first 3D browser game built specifically for mobile (but works great on the desktop too!). The game pits you against an army of Orcs, keen to stop you from escaping their dungeon lair. Swipe with the mouse (or touch controls if you have them) to smash down doors and counter the powerful sword attacks of the big green brutes! As you sprint further down the dark corridor, the action continues to hot up, so stay sharp!

Cube Slam by Google

Wed, 12 Jun 2013 17:07:12 +0000

Cube Slam is a video game that you can play face-to-face against your friends. It’s a Chrome Experiment built using WebRTC, an open web technology that lets you video chat right in the browser without installing any plug-ins. That means you can quickly and easily play Cube Slam with your friends, no matter where they are in the world, just by sharing a link. To win Cube Slam, hit the cube against your friend’s screen three times until the screen explodes. Shields, obstacles, and gravity fields change with every new level, and you can unlock power-ups including fireballs, lasers, multi-balls, mirrored controls, bulletproof shields, fog, ghost balls, time bombs, resized paddles, extra lives and death balls––though you might want to avoid the death balls. If none of your friends are online, you can always play against Bob the Bear and see what level you can reach. If you install the Cube Slam app, you can even play Bob when you’re offline. Cube Slam’s graphics are rendered in WebGL and CSS 3D, and its custom soundtrack is delivered dynamically through Web Audio. WebRTC, which enables the two-person game, is available on desktop Chrome and Chrome OS, and will be available on mobile later this year. In the meantime, you can play Cube Slam against Bob the Bear on your phone or tablet.

Pixels 3D by Victor Laplace

Mon, 10 Jun 2013 23:29:22 +0000

The first purpose of this demo is to test the capabilities and the power of ImageData for rendering hundreds or thousands of particles. Based on Joa Ebert's demo (@joa) with ActionScript 3, I ported his code for rendering 3d shapes with pixels. You can even add your OBJ models. It works well but it's a bit limited by CPU. So, I wanted to get the same rendering with WebGL/ThreeJS. I used Frame Buffer Object and OES_texture_float thanks to the work of @MrDoob and @BlurSpline. So you can switch between 2 renderers : CPU or GPU.

Head-Coupled 3D by Chris Bateman

Tue, 4 Jun 2013 18:00:00 +0000

Head-coupled perspective is a technique that simulates a 3D environment by changing a scene's projection based on the position of the user's eyes. This demo uses your webcam to track your face and set the CSS perspective accordingly.

Speak Colors by True North

Mon, 3 Jun 2013 16:52:46 +0000

At True North, we put together an experiment to find out what we could do with the new Web Speech API. Once you activate your microphone you can speak the names of different colors and the screen background will change to match (only CSS color names, mind you). And for some good old-fashioned audio feedback, we've incorporated a separate text-to-speech library, speak.js.
