Jungle Trail

Jungle Trail is a first-person walk down a winding jungle trail into overgrown stone ruins with a waterfall. It is built in Three.js with zero external art assets — every texture, mesh, and sound in the scene is generated procedurally in code. There are no image files, no models, and no audio recordings: the leaf atlas, the bark, the ground, the stone, and all sixty audio buffers are computed at load time.

There are no points, no timers, and no fail state. It is a place to walk through and look at.

How to Explore

1. Click START GAME, then click anywhere on the scene to lock the pointer.
2. Walk forward with W and look around with the mouse.
3. Use the trail as your guide — it winds from the trailhead, past the ruins, and down to the falls.
4. Jump with Space, sprint with Shift to move quicker.
5. Warp along the path with keys 1 – 5 if you want to skip ahead.

Controls

• Click — lock the pointer
• Mouse — look around
• W A S D — move
• Shift — sprint
• Space — jump
• 1 – 5 — teleport to trailhead / mid-trail / ruins / temple clearing / the falls
• F3 — show or hide the debug overlay

On touch devices, a walk pad appears bottom-left; drag anywhere else to look.

Tips

• The scene is built procedurally on load and adapts its quality to your device after a few stable seconds — give it a moment on first paint.
• Press F3 to peek at the debug overlay (frame time, draw calls, quality tier). Collapse it to a summary bar, or press F3 again to dismiss it.
• The teleport keys (1–5) are the fastest way to see every set piece without walking the whole trail.

Performance

Jungle Trail wants a desktop GPU. On a phone you will be told so before the scene is built and can choose to continue, but there is no reduced-quality mobile mode — the quality is the point.

Save Data

Nothing is saved. Each load rebuilds the entire world procedurally from a seed, so every visit is a fresh walk. Clearing site data has no effect on the experience.
