px3d: a free software browser based pixel 3D nano-engine in ClojureScript
summary
px3d is a browser-based free software pixel 3D engine written in ClojureScript that runs on top of three.js and WebGL. It targets game jams with an opinionated pixel aesthetic and fast iteration via live-reloading of Blender models: a make watch process runs Blender headless to export GLB, writes an md5 asset stub, and shadow-cljs hot-reloads updated meshes into the running scene while preserving app state. Rendering downscales then upscales for mobile performance.
