I've been building a little sandbox procedural virtual world using three.js, and it's been fun to approach the game design process backward; instead of starting with specific game mechanics and building the world/engine from there, I'm fleshing out the space and discovering what's fun to do with it.

I've been experimenting with 3D printing topographical maps lately, and it's neat how slicing the model along the z axis and using a color gradient filament results in a slope map where differing elevations are reflected by different colors.

I couldn't help but think of captain Zissou when I saw this
