A playful 3D web based game project celebrating the vibrant festival of Holi! It allows you to splash your friends (or anyone really) with colorful water balloons.
Holix is a fun Holi-themed game where you can add anyone's X (Twitter) profile picture to a canvas and throw coloured water balloons at them.
- WASD - Move around
- Mouse - Look around
- Left Click - Throw water balloon
- E - Open profile picture
- M - Lock/Unlock mouse
- Space - Jump
- TAB - Restart scene
To load someone's X (Twitter) profile picture:
- Go to any user's profile on x.com (e.g.,
https://x.com/username) - Click on their profile picture - this will open it in a format like
https://x.com/{username}/photo - Right-click on the displayed image and select "Open image in new tab" or "Copy image address"
- The image URL will look something like:
https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/2013680447725740033/LEIqdjJP_400x400.jpg - Copy this URL and paste it into the in-game menu (press Esc to open)
- Hit the submit button and start throwing balloons!
This project was built in a single day as a fun Holi celebration experiment. I came up with the idea just a day before Holi and rushed to bring it to life! It's not perfect and may have bugs or glitches, but it captures the joyful spirit of the festival.
