Low Poly Earth: A stylized low-poly Google Earth (lowpolyearth.online)

I made a stylized low-poly 3D Earth engine using open maps and elevation data that runs in the browser (desktop only for now).

It's written in Rust and runs on WebGPU (wasm with threads). I made it as a native mac app but have now ported it to wasm.

Disclaimer: The app was fully vibe-coded over a course of around 80 days using Claude Code and Codex.

Web app: play.lowpolyearth.online

Press esc for controls.
