SELENE is a quiet interactive experience set on an empty Moon. There are no NPCs and no crowd to fill the silence—just lunar facilities, machines, the surface outside, and Earth hanging in the distance. I built it as a place to explore at your own pace, sit in the cockpit, and enjoy the strange comfort of being very far away without feeling completely disconnected.

Could you build this?
Partial While basic 3D scenes in Three.js or React Three Fiber can be prompted, creating a polished, interactive lunar exploration experience with vehicle physics, terrain rendering, and cockpit mechanics requires substantial 3D modeling and graphics programming skill.
What it would actually take: The architecture relies on WebGL/WebGPU using Three.js or Babylon.js combined with a physics engine like Rapier or Cannon.js for rover mechanics. The complex work involves creating and optimizing 3D assets (LOD terrain, PBR textures, cockpit models) for web performance, writing custom shaders for lunar lighting/shadows, and handling responsive input handling across devices. Skilled 3D technical artistry and graphics optimization are essential.
