If you have ever played Elite Dangerous, you will be unimpressed by this.

I've played Elite Dangerous, and I'm still impressed by this ... because this runs in a browser, at 60fps on my Macbook, with a cold start time of about 8s (and half of that is streaming in a 3MB JSON file of all the star data). That is quite impressive.

Agreed, it work impressively well on my very average specs office laptop. It doesn't have any GPU yet it even stayed quiet.
