Show HN: Turning a Gaussian Splat into a videogame
Iakov Sumygin
Gaussian Splatting gives you photorealistic environments for free. The catch: a splat is just a cloud of oriented blobs - no triangles, no colliders, no navmesh, no lights. Drop a character in and they'll float through walls looking like they belong in a different universe.
This post walks through the demo I built to fix all of that:
- 👉 Play it in your browser - WASD, mouse to aim, left-click to fire.
- 👉 Check the project - the full PlayCanvas project is public. Every script mentioned in this.
