Building a new renderer at HypeHype. Former principal engineer at Unity and Ubisoft. Opinions are my own.

I am impressed about our new WebGPU WASM page load time. Whole engine loads in just a few hundreds of milliseconds. And games load pretty much instantly too.

It takes 2:25 to walk across the 8192x8192 2km^2 terrain in my WebGPU prototype. The world is way too big for 10,000 players. Nobody will see each other. Unless we have vehicles of course. I would love to have random dune buggies and ATVs around the map for players to grab :)

I wrote a AI "text adventure game" (MUD) in the past two weeks. We had a "hackweek" for prototyping AI game play. Story is AI generated text. Text generator is fed the theme and previous rooms and rules for exit generation. It returns a JSON string of exits and their descriptions. Which the game then parses and sends to AI image generator and room graph system. There's also a AI written battle story generator, which gets your inventory as input. AI figures how to use your weapons and consumables. And returns JSON for managing inventory state (broken weapons, consumables, etc).

My terrain proto looks so much better with actual 8192x8192 heightmap instead of the crappy gaussian noise. Implementing a lossless heightmap compressor now. The last one I wrote at Ubisoft has ~10x compression ratio. Of course I ended up writing a compressor as a side quest :)

Going downhill in my WebGPU terrain proto. Imagine having a car... I would love to write another physics solver :)

Canyon heightmap (same source). It's a 4K heightmap, so I had to (bilinear) upscale to 8K. My tech only supports 8K heightmaps. My planar predictor makes the 8K map compress to only 14MB. The mountain map was 30MB.

New WebGPU terrain build with color painting tools: This concludes my single week prototype. It was a blast! I really enjoyed doing it. Prototyping continues on Christmas vacation: - 2nd week = full 3d voxel system - 3rd week = 10,000 player multiplayer

WebGPU terrain compute ray-tracer update: Floating point precision bug is fixed. It was Codex written code. It used a full 4x4 inverse to transform NDC far to world space and subtracted camera world. Now using fast/stable two param NCD->view formulation.

HypeHype WebGPU/WASM browser game loading time test v2. This time with bigger games. The engine itself loads in less than 1 second. When you scroll the feed it preloads next game. Our WASM build doesn't have threading (web workers) yet -> loading blocks between games.

Example of modern user-generated content in HypeHype: This scene has thousands of skinned characters, thousands of physics objects and over 10,000 audio sources. It runs at 60 fps on 99$ phone. It doesn't look fancy, but it would choke Unity even on high end PC.

We had internal PBR pipeline demo this morning. This is running 60 fps on iPhone 6s (medium GPU clock rate) and the device stays cool. Still missing all ambient occlusion tech (large scale and SSAO). All demo content was made in one week by Daniel Palmi.

HypeHype on a 3 year old 99€ Android phone (Mali G57 MP2). Game made by a colleague as a hobby project during the summer. Frame rate hovers at around 50 fps. Everything I mentioned in my SIGGRAPH talk is enabled: PBR, GTAO, cascaded shadows, post processing...

Indoor scenes in HypeHype are starting to look acceptable. This has no baked lighting. Only a single oct-map (conv.mips) for indirect specular and diffuse, masked with screen space AO (GTAO). No sunlight and no local lights (local lights are coming in a few months). Game by Allu
