Fractal Flight
April 13 to April 26 2025
Gamedev.js Jam 2025: Balance
Project Overview
Float through a vibrant, generative sky of fractal clouds and balance your glider through a neon dreamworld. Explore a hypnotic blend of art and motion where every sky is uniquely formed.
Fractal Flight is a minimalist flight experience created for the Gamedev.js Jam 2025 under the theme Balance. You pilot a paraglider across a procedurally generated fractal sky, balancing your movement through shifting psychedelic clouds above a glowing neon cityscape.
- A simple physics loop mimics gliding through the air using Three.js vector math.
- Procedurally rendered with fragment shaders or generated noise to build complex skies.
- A parallax scrolling image adds depth beneath the clouds.
- The sky colors pulse and flow using time-based hue shifts.
