Little Globe

A cozy low-poly planet to explore at your own pace, populated with tiny animated animals and natural-history facts.

ArcGIS handles the camera, 3D navigation and coordinates. A custom WebGL2 RenderNode draws the faceted planet, oceans, terrain, forests, animals and landmarks.

Species are placed within their approximate native regions and move with adapted animations. Clicking an animal opens a card with a short description, a fun fact, an approximate native-range map and a Wikipedia link.

  • Custom WebGL2 rendering integrated into the ArcGIS render cycle
  • Land, flying and marine animals with geographic movement
