Story

After creating the first split screen version (Color Split ), I wanted to push myself and actually implement the lowpoly space scene with weather that I’d previously abandoned in Full­screen Low­poly.

Design

This is one of those times where the final results almost perfectly match the mockup.

How it Works

Live Sun & Moon

The sun and moon rotate around the earth based on the current time, yes this is a very Geocentric model of how the solar system works. The color of space also changes throughout the day.

Weather

I fetch the weather data using DarkSky, and it’s displayed animated floating above the earth.

Illustrations

I created all of the images used in the scene with Maxon3D, they were previously created for an older version of the site that I abandoned (Full­screen Low­poly)
