Loving this, really nice work. Works super smooth and even the music is quite nice!
A little bit of unrequested feedback:
- Allow me to drag the viewport somehow. A couple times I wanted see elements around to position them on my screen in perspective but couldn't do that.
- Allow me to stop the zoom out animation somehow. At the moment one move on my trackpad and I teleport from coffee bean to Rwanda. I can't stop this zoom animation. It seems that I have to go to Rwanda.
- Support retina screens. This might come in really useful. To do this (it occurs to me that you're using PIXI.js), when creating your app set resolution to window.devicePixelRatio || 1. You might be on a devicePixelRatio === 1 screen and can't see the difference right but trust me it's there. You can test and see it on any modern mac or apple mobile device.
Sending you a digital high five of size of the observable universe.
- mattmar96 5y agoThank you for the kind words and feedback! I'll look into these.
- zagrebian 5y agoThe performance is really good. Usually when I open a GPU-intensive visualization in the browser, my laptop fans start making a lot of noise, but not this time.
- mattmar96 5y agoI'm very glad to hear it. I spent a lot of time optimizing.
- miles 5y ago> even the music is quite nice Thanks for mentioning that; the music does not play in Safari, so I opened Firefox in the background for the music while zooming in Safari via trackpad scrolling (which doesn't appear to work in Firefox). The wonderful "Powers of Ten" video has been mentioned elsewhere in the comments; see also "The Simpsons" take: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycvlJ9XMd94 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycvlJ9XMd94 . Lots of fun - thank you, mattmar96!
- mattmar96 5y agoAh so many bugs. Going to take care of all of these soon. Glad you enjoyed.
