Hi all,<br>
<br>
sharing this from Mozilla as I believe it's cool opportunity to put
a WebGL demo in the spotlight at GDC. If you are interested in
working with Mozilla to do demo for GDC, please contact Desigan
directly by email. To my understanding Mozilla has a bit of budget
reserved for paying for the work involved.<br>

advancing the open web, and lately our games team has been driving
forward in this space with technologies like asm.js, Emscripten,
WebAssembly, and WebGL2. One challenge we face is that many game
developers feel the web can't meet the high bar of AAA games — and
we're looking to fund demos to highlight the new bar WebGL2 can
set.<br>
<br>
Demo should be JS, relatively small to download and run (as it
might also get used in a browser test suite to validate browser
support for web game APIs). Demos that can stress the CPU as well
as GPU are ideal. Leveraging technologies such as SIMD and Shared
Array Buffers (threading) are key — think shaders, physics,
collisions, etc.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br>
<br>
Short form, looking for ability to scale the demo such that it can
crush a machine (so we can use it in the test suite):<br>
<ul>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">JavaScript</li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">Small filesize</li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">Fast startup</li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">Stress CPU and GPU</li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">SIMD and Shared Array Buffers
(threading)</li>
</ul>
Think big!<br>
