Why we built Gessa in the browser on WebGPU

The browser is the right place to create

Installing a heavyweight desktop engine is a real barrier, to trying an idea, and to working together. The browser removes both. You open a link and you're building; you share a link and someone else is building with you, in the same project, in real time.

For an AI-native engine, that matters even more: when creation is a fast loop of describe-and-see, the friction of installs and project setup is exactly what you want to eliminate.

WebGPU closes the quality gap

The historical knock on browser engines is fidelity. WebGPU changes that math by giving the browser modern GPU access, so a web-delivered engine can render with quality that used to require a native install.

Gessa renders on WebGPU, which is what lets it be both browser-based and engine-grade, not a toy prototyper, but something you ship.

From the browser to real platforms

Browser-first doesn't mean browser-only. Gessa is built to ship native to web, iOS, and Steam from one project, no manual Electron wrapping in the design, so the convenience of the browser doesn't cost you a real publishing path.
