The Isogenic Game Engine is a modern web-based MMO game engine that allows you to rapidly develop your next MMO for the web. Isogenic requires no plugins to run which means players can run your game without Adobe Flash or Microsoft Silverlight, straight from their web browser.

Isogenic supports the HTML5 canvas tag or can render with standard DOM manipulation for browsers that do not support canvas and supports both 2D and isometric games.

xNormal is an application to generate normal / ambient occlusion / displacement maps. It can also project the texture of the highpoly model into the lowpoly mesh ( complete texture transfer, even with different topologies ).

Includes too an interactive 3D viewer with multiple mesh and textures format support, shaders and realtime soft shadows / glow effect.

It comes with some useful tools like height map - normal map - cavity map - occlusion - tangent/object space and spherical harmonics tools.

All these computations are done using multicore/multithreading, distributed/parallel rendering, ray tracing and advanced GPGPU techniques.

Swipe is a lightweight mobile slider with 1-to-1 touch movement. 1-to-1 touch movement is sliding content based on exact touch position. It’s a different level of interacting with the content, more intuitive than swiping left to right and then watching the slider move to the proper position. This has been attempted many times but few seem to embody all the rules a slider like this must follow (in my opinion).

melonJS is the result of our enthusiasm and past experiments with Javascript, and came from the feeling that no simple, free and standalone library was available to develop games. And although still a big work in progress (and not yet bug free), melonJS already allows to easily create some nice games (see the Gallery page)

A procedural modeler, Acropora combines volumetric modifiers with multi-octave 3D noise sampling to generate detailed surfaces in far less time than conventional surface modeling software. Acropora adopts a less deterministic approach to generating complex, organic shapes by applying sequences of modifiers on large voxelized meshes. The effect is to create an endless, seamless expanse of surface that undulates and changes in a natural way. The resulting meshes contain caves, ridges, overhangs and other natural features that are not possible with height maps. Meshes can then be broken up into segments, with segments further divided into different levels of details.
