Softbody Tetris: A Squishy WebGPU Remake That Plays Different

Niklas Niehus rebuilt Tetris with soft body physics running entirely on WebGPU via Three.js TSL. Blocks deform on impact, wedge into gaps, and create emergent gameplay the original never had. Fully playable in your browser.

WebRF: The Longley-Rice Radio Propagation Model, Running in WebGPU Compute Shaders

Roman Liutikov ported the Longley-Rice ITM algorithm, a real-world radio propagation model used in cell network planning, entirely into WebGPU compute shaders. 1,200 lines of WGSL, a two-pass radial sweep architecture, and coverage maps that actually respect terrain.

WebHeat: GPU-Powered Thermal Simulation for Any STL File

A high school senior learned Newton's law of cooling in class, then built a full thermal simulation in the browser. Drop in any STL, watch heat propagate through voxelized geometry on the GPU. WebGPU compute shaders, React frontend, and a useRef trick that keeps it all from falling apart.

Game of 3D Life: Conway's Cellular Automaton with WebGPU

Conway's Game of Life in three dimensions. Simulation and rendering both run on the GPU via WebGPU compute shaders. No frameworks, just vanilla JS and hundreds of thousands of instanced cubes. Fly through the clusters as they evolve.

Party: A WebGPU Particle Physics Playground

Thousands of particles swarm and collide with real physics, all running on WebGPU compute shaders. Party lets you tweak gravity, forces, and constraints live. It's part demo, part instrument.

Deferred Rendering in WebGPU: Sponza with 400+ Compute-Driven Point Lights

Georgi Nikolov's WebGPU renderer puts 400+ point lights in the classic Sponza atrium. Deferred shading, cascaded shadows, Hi-Z reflections, TAA. Clean architecture that handles WebGPU's explicit pipelines without drama.

Holiday Snow Globe

Michael Modena's holiday snow globe uses WebGPU compute shaders to create volumetric snow that actually fills the dome with mesh-based particles generating proper normals. Plus a Porsche GT3 drifts inside. It's a Christmas card that doubles as a lighting and compute shader stress test.
