Phew, glad I picked Pixi.js for this then. I’m building the next version of Scale of the Universe

(For windows/mac/linux only btw)

This is really cool. Do you selectively render depending on the zoom level? (I looked for source but could only find the minified js on your github)
Yeah, I have basic culling implemented. Objects that are larger than, say, 3x their normal scale are not rendered. Likewise with those 1/100th their normal scale.

What do you mean? It's a website.

You can try it on a phone but its not designed for it. Theres a separate app version of it for mobile.
I guess you should have said it's for desktop, then, since I felt like you're implying Linux browsers won't work (which they do).
