Canvascape - 3D Walker

November 30, 2005 | Links

With the newly released Firefox 1.5 and the slightly less recently released Safari 1.3, there is a new canvas object added to javascript. This means you can now draw things to the screen yourself. This has the potential to be pretty big, but also the potential to be abused - much like the otherwise lovely, not in the slightest bit tacky, rippling Java applets, that were so popular many moons ago.

Canvascape - 3D Walker is the first of, what is bound to be, many tech demos showing off what people can do with the new toy, thankfully unlike the Java applet it loads pretty much instantly.

I think it’s cool.
