Doesn't support Safari on latest iOS:) it says I need iOS 26. The latest is iOS 18. Its way ahead of its time I guess

iOS 26 public beta is out now; very near public release I’d say. I’m typing to you on it right now

How does ios 26 come immediately after ios 18? Are they increasing versions 8 integers at a time now?

Voxel space? I only saw planar objects flying in 3D space.

The text is planar, but its actually in a voxel grid you can see how the animations can rotated and move forward and backward. Technically these are made of little voxels, i'm working on implementing proper font support with extruding so you can make real 3d characters
