Browser based games and simulations
Primordial Reactions and Interactions, Modeling Evolutionary Self.
This simulation models the behavior of atoms in a primordial soup surrounding hydrothermal vents. The goal is to understand how these atoms interact and form bonds.
As you peer into the primordial soup surrounding hydrothermal vents, you discover a world where select atoms are magnified to the size of marbles. This extraordinary view is made possible by your specially designed glasses, which utilize advanced microscopic technology to selectively amplify and observe specific atomic behavior - namely, the interactions configured in the initial conditions file primes.json.
When the simulation starts, you are looking down into the primordial soup at a 45 degree angle. We will call this the z axis.
If you click an atom, you enter God mode and can now move it around. Z axis is W/S on a keyboard. X axis is A/D. Up on the Y axis is the E key.
Double click anywhere there is not an atom to exit God mode.
In **God Mode**, atomic bonds and external forces are relaxed, allowing free manipulation of individual atoms in a molecular structure. When selecting and moving an atom with multiple bonds - its neighbors will follow suit.
To break all existing bonds on a selected atom, right-click while in God mode. It may require breaking the bonds of several surrounding atoms in order to move a particular atom if the number of bonds to it are plentiful.
Game Strategy:
When you start the game, you'll receive instructions on a task that must
be completed to progress to the next level. The goal might seem
straightforward - for example, creating molecular hydrogen - but the
challenge lies in locating and manipulating the required atoms.
To accomplish this, you'll need to strategically switch between two types
of force spawners: one that moves atoms around and another called Molecule
Builder, which allows for more precise control over atom selection and
movement. The key advantage of Molecule Builder is that it isolates the
selected atoms from external forces, giving you complete control as the
"external force".
Here's a step-by-step approach to succeed:
1. Use a force spawner that moves atoms to locate them, which may
be hidden behind obstacles like thermal vents.
2. Quickly switch to Molecule Builder and navigate the atom into position.
3. Remember that when an atom is selected, external forces are paused,
regardless of the force spawner used. To reapply external forces, simply
double-click on an empty space.
4. Once you've constructed the required molecule, tap the "Next Level"
button to initiate a quick verification check.
5. If your molecule is correct, you'll advance to the next level and
receive new instructions for the next challenge.
**Automated Gameplay**
If you don't manually start gameplay within a few minutes of launching the simulation, the game will
automatically begin playing on its own.
This mode offers a fascinating glimpse into the slow and gradual process of evolution. Be prepared for a
potentially lengthy experience, as completing all levels can take a significant amount of time.
For your convenience, the total elapsed time is displayed and each level's individual elapsed time is also displayed (in
parentheses), allowing you to track the game's progress and pace.
Note that automated gameplay can be cancelled at any time by pressing the "Next Level" button. If you want to
continue playing in automated mode, simply refrain from tapping the "Start" or "Next Level" button. Additionally, God mode is
still available for use during automated gameplay to help nudge the simulation along.
Custom primes.json for simulation experiments:
Some example custom json files can be found here. https://meatygamer.com/primes/configs/. To use them, you would add a url parameter to the browser url.
Example: https://meatygamer.com/primes/?config=https://meatygamer.com/primes/configs/100_hydrogen.json
To use your own custom json initial conditions file, you will need to host it on a site that allows static files (not google drive unfortunately) otherwise when the page tries to download the json, it will encounter a CORS violation. Some sites that allow hosting static files and send the proper CORS header include:
1. **AWS S3**: Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides an S3 service that allows you to host static files, including
JSON files. You can configure your S3 bucket to include CORS headers in its responses, making it accessible from
any origin.
2. **Cloudflare Pages**: Cloudflare offers a service called Cloudflare Pages, which is a platform for hosting and
delivering web content. They provide an easy way to upload and host static files, including JSON files, with
automatic CORS header support.
3. **GitHub Pages**: GitHub Pages is a service that allows you to host static websites directly from your GitHub
repository. You can use it to host your JSON files, and GitHub will automatically include CORS headers in the
responses.
4. **Netlify Large Media (NLM)**: Netlify offers a service called Netlify Large Media (NLM), which is designed
for hosting large files, including images and videos. However, they also support hosting other types of files,
such as JSON files.
If you encounter an error, be sure to look for related errors is in the browser console.
Detailed documentation on how to configure the simulation is included in the example json files.

GGG is a multiplayer game with voice chat where you drive vehicles like mechs and tanks to win various gameplay modes.
The game couldn't be easier to play. No login required, you will always be able to play anonymous if you wish.
The key feature of this game that sets it apart is it is mutltiplayer with crossplay on PC, VR, or mobile as it runs in your web browser.
Basically you click the link and once it loads you start shooting. Couldn't be easier.
Once enough players are online games will start automatically like capture the flag or first to 10 kills.
GGG is designed from the ground up to be a nice 3D game that will run on a potato. GGG has been tested on a Lenovo Chromebook with celeron dual core processor. These go for less than $50 on Amazon and ebay even with an upgraded 32 GB SSD vs 16 GB. If you have something this fast or faster you will be fine including voice chat.

Finally! A browser based fishing game that runs in VR.
Most fishing games are about casting. Master bobber is about leaving your bobber alone until you catch a fish. In real life fishing there is nothing more annoying than someone throwing out their bobber with a minnow on it and then reeling it back in almost immediately.
You can do that too with Master Bobber if you want, knock yourself out but keep in mind your score will go down.
The best way to catch fish and get a high score on Master Bobber is to first see the fish by driving the boat and looking for them around cover. Then put the bobber over the fish and leave it alone for no less than 2 minutes as that is the best way to make sure you get a strike.
Stockton lake is known to be full of Wapers, which only hybridize here. They are a hybrid between a Wiper (another hybrid) and a Walleye.
Loto (Lake Of The Ozarks) has Wapers, but also contains every other fish in the game. It has terrible looking terrain, but great looking fish and will also run on slower devices including Quest built-in browsers for VR gameplay (highly recommended).
Table Rock lake has detailed fish including Black and White Crappie among others. It also has more detailed structure and requires a faster device to run properly. It is designed for PC and PCVR so use extreme caution when running on your phone or built-in VR headset browser. They will need to be very fast and modern.
Turn on the radio under Music in the 3 bar menu and listen to the most popular songs on Beat Saver while the fish dance to the Beat Saver map. Song Playlist.
Please be aware that using dynamite to harvest fish is illegal and unethical.
As this game can be a bit scary from time to time especially in VR, it is not appropriate for children.
Master Bobber has been tested on a Lenovo y520 (which is pretty slow) and it runs great on Arch Linux with a 1050 ti and i7 with 8gb of ram. These are no more than $250 on eBay at the time of this writing.
Here is another fairly inexpensive option for a top notch VR experience. Enable autologon after setup and have VR Virtual Desktop start automatically and you can use your VR headset as your monitor and keyboard without controllers if handtracking is enabled. The use a nice game controller like an Xbox style controller to play Web VR games.Beelink SER7

Flat Earth is a single player golf game that runs in your browser.
Flat Earth has been tested on this inexpensive android tablet found here: BYANDBY Tablet.
This tablet was only $40 at the time of this writing and will run Flat Earth very, very poorly, so don't waste your time and money.
To run Flat Earth properly on a tablet, you need something like this: SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra.
But for that kind of money you could get a nice laptop that would run it well like this one: Lenovo V15 Laptop.
Finally, the best laptop worth the money is any Lenovo Legion like this one: Lenovo Legion 5 Gaming Laptop. They are tanks.
But please do try it on whatever device you are using while reading this page. It may run it. If you get an Array buffer error while loading, stuttering when the in game sounds play, or green or some other weird color streaks across the screen, then your device isn't quite strong enough to run Flat Earth.
