Bridging the gap between cinema and gaming. Watch, Play, and Explore photorealistic worlds through our proprietary pipeline.
Play MetaUmbra prototypeReal places, captured with Gaussian splatting and running live in your browser.
Our goal was to test the limits of Gaussian Splatting by transforming a large-scale volumetric scan into an instant, playable browser horror experience. It pairs the dread of navigating an authentic maze with real-time stealth mechanics, proving radiance fields are ready for interactive web gaming.
Can clicking a thumbnail feel like instantly stepping through a doorway into another world? By camera-matching our preview image with the opening frame of this woodland Gaussian Splat, we created an instant, seamless bridge between a 2D link and a photorealistic 3D horror space.
Best played on a desktop or laptop. Large 3D scenes may take a moment to load.
