Dimillian tests Astra: strong at procedural 3D, ships playable game
Dimillian · x · 2026-09-05
Developer Dimillian shared Void Explorer, a playable web game built with the Astra model. He praised Astra's raw/procedural 3D skills: nearly everything is generated in code and rendered with three.js and WebGPU. He argues procedural 2D/3D generation offers far more flexibility than relying solely on authored assets, and the model is genuinely good at it.
