Endless Drive
Play it: project-magellan.pages.dev
An endless, procedurally generated world to drive, sail and fly through: meadows, pine country, deserts, snowy ridges, the snowbound Frostlands, lakes, rivers and inland seas, with jump ramps, barrel-roll ramps, camps and lookout towers along the way. Your vehicle, the ATLAS, is an off-road 4×4 that turns into a boat in deep water and unfolds into a plane on demand. Or take the Roadster, a low supercar with cold-gas thrusters that boosts, hovers and skims across lakes.
Every visit generates a new world. Add ?seed=123456 to a link to share or revisit the same one.
Running it locally
There's no build step. Serve the folder over HTTP (opening index.html as a file won't work):
python3 -m http.server 8000 --bind 127.0.0.1
Then open localhost:8000. For development, npm run dev serves on port 8002 with caching disabled.
You need a browser with WebGL and module workers. Everything else is bundled: Three.js 0.160.0 lives in vendor/ with its license, and the game runs without any external connection (Google Fonts are optional, with system font fallbacks).
Controls
Driving
| Key | Action |
|---|
| W / ↑ | Accelerate |
| S / ↓ | Brake, then reverse |
| A D / ← → | Steer |
| Space | Jump (stopped or moving) |
| Shift | Handbrake / drift |
| F | Unfold the wings to fly; press again to fold them and land. Roadster: hold to hover on the thrusters. Light Cycle: neon boost to 500 km/h (press) |
| E | Roadster: boost on the rear thrusters (hold) |
| Q E | Light Cycle: lean further left / right (it also leans by itself as it turns); leaning into a turn tightens it |
| ↓ ↑ | Light Cycle: lift and lower the front wheel (W/S drive it) |
| G | Roadster: suction fans on / off |
| R | Recover onto nearby clear ground |
| C | Camera: chase, wide or bonnet |
| V | Switch vehicle where you are: the ATLAS, the Roadster and the Light Cycle (also the ⇄ button at the top right) |
| L | Headlights |
| M | Mute / unmute |
| Esc / P | Pause / resume |
| N | New world |
| 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 | Jump to sunrise, noon, sunset or night (also Time in the menu) |
In the water the same keys drive the boat: W/S thrust, A/D steer, Shift slows down. You can't jump while floating. The Light Cycle never floats either: reach water and its neon boost fires, however little charge is left, and holds until the far shore while it rides across at up to 500 km/h. The Roadster never floats: over water it skims on its thrusters and drives as it does on land.
Flying
Flight has two control schemes. Every visit starts on full controls; press T (or SIMPLE on touch) to switch for that visit.
| Key | Full controls | Simple controls |
|---|
| W / S | Throttle / air brake | Throttle / air brake |
| ↑ / ↓ | Pitch, flight-stick style (↓ pulls the nose up) | Throttle |
| Space / Shift | Climb / dive (pitch) | Climb / dive, holding level when released |
| A / D, ← / → | Roll | Bank and turn; the wings level when released |
| Q / E | Yaw (rudder) | — |
| F | Fold the wings and fall to a landing as the car: the flight controls, propeller and air brakes fade as they fold | Same |
Touch
On phones and compact windows:
- Steering slider (lower left): slide to steer. The track stays put, and the knob stops at either end however far your finger travels.
- ↑ / ↓: accelerate, and brake then reverse.
- Light Cycle: LIFT and LOWER fill the row over the steering slider, JUMP sits to its right, BOOST above ↑ and DRIFT above ↓.
- Jump and Drift sit side by side just above the slider. FLY is just left of the brake; in the air it becomes LAND, with SIMPLE above it. In the Roadster it's HOVER (hold it), with BOOST and FANS (suction on / off) beside it.
- Flight ring: in the air the steering slider becomes a ring in the same spot. Drag the knob up to climb, down to dive, and sideways to roll (or turn, on simple controls). The ring stays put, the knob stops at its edge and re-centres when you let go, and ↑ / ↓ are the throttle.
- Tilt steering (menu → Settings → Tilt steering, off by default): turn the phone like a steering wheel to steer; full lock is about 35° of turn. The slider steps aside, and Jump and Drift stay put. In the air, turning rolls (or turns, on simple controls), and tilting the top toward you climbs and away dives, measured from how you held the phone when the wings came out. The ring still works and takes over while you touch it. iPhones ask once for motion access when you turn it on.
- No minimap on phones, so the controls have room (the HUD still points to the nearest ramp and lake).
- Fullscreen: in landscape the game goes fullscreen on your next tap, and leaves it when you turn back to portrait. Safari on iPhone doesn't allow fullscreen for web pages, so on iPhone use Share → Add to Home Screen: the game then opens fullscreen like an app.
- Sensitivity (50–150%) is in the menu's Settings. It changes how quickly small slider, ring or tilt movements turn; full deflection is always full lock.
The game pauses when the window loses focus. If the browser drops the graphics (phones do when you switch apps), the drive pauses there and carries on from the pause menu once they're restored, with no reload. Sound is on from the start (it begins with your first click or tap, as browsers require); press M to mute, or the speaker button for music and effects volumes, and the game remembers. Trip records and settings are saved in your browser.
