TTL — Through the Lens is live. It is our first game published to a portal, and it is playable now on Playgama.

A rooftop at night under a low moon, the lens open over a water tower

You are the camera on a case. Each scene is a lit diorama you can rotate — a greenhouse, a detective’s study, a rooftop above a sleeping city — and something in it is wrong. Hold to bring up a lens, drag it across the scene, and it reveals what the room was hiding. Rest it on the object that’s different and it tags. Clear the scene and the case moves on.

Underneath it is the generator we wrote about in June: every scene is built from a single seed, with props recoloured, rotated, moved or removed under constraints that keep each one findable. The prototype was a side-by-side comparison game; the lens replaced it, and the game got considerably better for it.

Built with Three.js, and it runs in a browser tab — no install, no account.

Play it on Playgama, and read how it was built on the project page.
