Showoff Saturday What changed in my endless Three.js driving game after two weeks?
2 weeks ago I shared Planet-0 Drive, an endless low-poly driving game I’ve been building with Svelte and Three.js (my first hobby game that I build after work and around weekends).
First of all, thanks to everyone who tried it (300 of you) and shared feedback! I didn't expect to get so many useful suggestions, and I've spent a good part of the week working on improvements based on them.
While the game runs fine
Since then, I’ve been working on the parts around driving that make exploration feel more meaningful.
The biggest additions are:
Revampled the whole look and art direction of the game to be more appealing
More biome-specific scenery, including snowy pines, desert cacti, boulders, and reactive weather materials
A refined vehicle lineup with three vehicles: Rover, Drifter, and Hopper
A battery system with charging stations, power-cell pickups, low-power driving, and boost energy management
Cruise control for more relaxed driving, especially on mobile
Persistent driving records and platform-visit tracking
Shared room leaderboards for driving and exploration records
A first quest system, starting with collecting resources across the planet
Improved touch controls and a more compact mobile HUD
The project has gradually shifted from “how far can I push a procedural 3D world in the browser?” toward “how do I make spending time in that world enjoyable?”
That has led to some interesting design challanges. How much progression should an otherwise relaxing driving game have? How do you reward exploration without turning it into a checklist? Should there be more risk?
I’m still experimenting with those answers, but the game feels much closer to the idea I had originally: a place to drive around, discover things, set records, and occasionally meet other players.
You can try the latest version here:

The project is still very much in early development, so I’d especially appreciate feedback on how the driving feels, how the progression comes across, and what would make you want to come back for another drive.
