Super loud sound warning, us parents and folks wearing headphones would really appreciate default sound off. Or at least a some indication to turn volume down before tapping "pour"
It doesn’t in my case, I see some weird animation, everything disappears, “pour” button again. Shaking or any other movement doesn’t help. Latest chrome on iOS
Tried this on desktop and mobile, totally different experiences. I love the residue effect on the screen after I tilt the sand around on mobile. Next step: hourglass or maybe a snow globe?
It didn’t look realistic to me until I added `?sand=beach` to the URL. Maybe I only associate sand from the beach as sand. Others I call silt perhaps incorrectly.
I wouldn’t call it realistic, sand gets stuck in the air, stones don’t rotate, and there’s quite an uncanny valley effect based on angles.
Still a cool demo of what is possible, even though I get 10fps or something on a iPhone 15 Pro
didnt encounter the stucking issue but agree with the overerall point, the sand gets a sort of 'build-up pressure and bounce back' effect which breaks the immersiveness for me, otherwise cool
Such a curious effect, although it makes sense given that each particle is probably being positioned in absolute coordinates with respect to the screen boundaries. So each grain gets bigger but stays in place.
Runs like crap on iPhone 14. I know it’s not the current generation of phone but is there really that meaningful of a difference between that and a current one?
It also responds to touch, which I didn't know until the third time I played with it.
Whenever the phone detects an orientation change, it resets the layout.
And if you manage to collect a lot in one place, the sand from the pile does fall like real sand. This is amazing.
The sound is not good though.
Otherwise really amazing!
