Description
Most bending games put you in their world with a controller. Slop Bender reverses that: your body is the controller, and any scene can become the game. Punches, stomps, squats, raises, and sweeps translate directly into earth and water bending through your webcam. Upload any photo or video, from a beach to your backyard, and bend the world inside it.

Could you build this?
Partial The client-side Three.js and pose detection (MediaPipe) are straightforward, but running server-side depth estimation, SAM 2/3 segmentation, and turning arbitrary 2D imagery into destructible 3D physics meshes requires complex computer vision pipelines.
What it would actually take: The architecture requires a client using Three.js and Rapier3d with MediaPipe for real-time webcam pose recognition, paired with a GPU backend running SAM (Segment Anything Model) and depth estimation (like Depth Anything) to segment materials (rock/water) and build layered 3D depth meshes. The difficult part is reliable semantic scene decomposition and fragmenting arbitrary user photos into interactive physics bodies with high frame rates. Building this requires expertise in 3D computer vision, WebGL/Three.js shaders, and real-time rigid body physics simulation.
