SkyRyder
Take to the skies in SkyRyder, a fast-paced 3D flying adventure. Explore a vast world of mountains, beaches, and cities while hunting balloons, building score streaks, and weaving through challenging terrain. Master your aircraft, stay airborne, and see how far your skills can take you.
SkyRyder is a 3D flight experience built in raw HTML, compressed into just 15KB.
Flight & Exploration: Pilot a fighter plane through an infinite, procedural world. Features a leading-target auto-aim system for hunting down balloons across a vast, changing landscape.
Dynamic World: Real-time terrain generation with slope-aware texturing (snowy peaks, lush valleys, and sandy beaches) and scattered city clusters. Uses atmospheric fog and wave physics to create a massive sense of scale.
HUD & Systems: Fighter-jet inspired interface with speed/altitude telemetry and hull integrity, all designed for a smooth, immersive cockpit experience.
The Tech: No libraries or external assets used. Everything—the 3D models (spinning propellers, detailed balloons), procedural logic, and 8-bit inspired audio engine—is hand-coded in a single file.
Goal: Build a score streak, navigate the complex terrain, and push your flight skills to the limit.
