Tidewater

Ink Tide is a cel-shaded arcade boat-racing game for the browser, built with Vite, TypeScript, and Three.js. It uses no external assets: meshes, textures, rider animations, and sounds are generated in code. The game runs on an infinite procedural ocean formed from six summed Gerstner waves displaced in a vertex shader on a camera-recentered radial grid; CPU buoyancy samples the same wave field at six hull points, while GPU water rendering receives shared wave uniforms. Boats race three laps around a closed circuit with checkpoint gates, wrong-way detection, split times, AI drivers, powerslide-charged boosts, camera cycling, and gamepad controls. Rendering uses quantised cel shading, banded specular highlights, Fresnel rims, inverted-hull exterior outlines, and a Sobel pass for interior lines. Audio is synthesized with Web Audio, including engine, water, impact, and race-start sounds. The repository includes a Playwright-based screenshot harness for capturing and verifying game frames.

ABYSSAL is an open-source, browser-based real-time ocean and extreme-weather simulation built with Three.js, WebGL2, GLSL3, and Vite. It procedurally generates the ocean, clouds, rain, spray, foam, lightning, hurricanes, waterspouts, whirlpools, rogue waves, and tsunamis on the GPU without external textures, meshes, HDRIs, or sound files. Its ocean uses three FFT wave cascades driven by a JONSWAP spectrum and a per-frame butterfly IFFT; a projected screen-space grid renders the water, while analytic disaster height fields deform its surface. Volumetric clouds are raymarched from Perlin-Worley noise and a procedural weather map, with atmospheric-scattering lookup tables providing shared lighting for the sky, clouds, ocean, and spray. Temporal anti-aliasing, adaptive quality scaling, bloom, depth of field, motion blur, and tone mapping form the post-processing pipeline. The browser experience includes an automatic cinematic storm sequence and a sandbox with free-flight controls.

The Long Silence is a browser-based procedural space-exploration game. It generates stars, planets, ring systems, nebulae, and derelicts from a seed rather than using downloadable art assets; the player pilots the Pale Seeker, charts systems, scans discoveries, lands on worlds, and attunes to Resonators across the game’s seven-system objective. It uses WebGL 2, handwritten GLSL, a floating origin, and a logarithmic depth buffer to represent systems spanning millions of world units while keeping the ship near the origin. Planets are baked into cubemaps containing albedo and terrain-height data, with runtime shaders sampling those textures for normals and lighting. Atmospheres use single-scattering raymarches, while GPU auto-exposure and a hand-built post-processing chain provide bloom, anamorphic streaks, god rays, lens ghosts, tone mapping, grain, dithering, and FXAA. The project is developed as a JavaScript package with npm scripts for local development and production builds; the latter produces a static bundle in the dist/ directory. Its renderer adjusts resolution dynamically between 0.62× and 2× to target frame rate rather than removing visual features.

INKWAVE is an open-source browser-based 4v4 turf-war shooter built with three.js. Players paint arena surfaces, swim through their team's ink to move quickly and refill their tank, use weapons and special abilities, and compete against bots across three stages; the team with the most painted ground after three minutes wins. It includes seven weapon types, squid movement, map viewing with Super Jumps, character customization, and keyboard, mouse, and gamepad controls. Ink is painted into texture-space regions on a GPU-managed 4K atlas, while a coarse CPU grid tracks turf scores and gameplay queries. Shaders add height, gloss, wetness, drying, and wall-drip effects. Stages are defined as data and mirrored by 180 degrees for symmetrical team layouts; characters use procedurally generated geometry, materials, a 60-bone rig, and code-driven animations. Weapons, actors, match logic, effects, HUD, and audio communicate through typed events, and deterministic freeze-and-step tooling supports reproducible bot simulations and filmstrip generation. The game has no build step for local development and can run from a static file server; its included server starts the game at localhost:8490. Chrome and Edge are the target browsers, with Firefox supported and Safari described as slower. The repository is licensed under MIT and states that INKWAVE is an independent project unaffiliated with Nintendo.
