Into the Wormhole

Catalogue summary

Solve spatial puzzles by placing and crossing mathematically rendered wormholes in a free demo.

Hi! I'm a physicist and mathematician from Spain. My bachelor's thesis was about rendering images of a wormhole faithful to the math (an Ellis / Morris–Thorne wormhole), and the results looked so cool that I wanted to walk around inside them in real time.

So I made Into the Wormhole: a puzzle game where you place, rotate and walk through wormholes. Nothing is faked with portal cameras. For every pixel the game traces the path of light through curved spacetime, so what you see through each mouth is what you'd really see.

The demo has 15 levels and it's free on itch.io (Windows + browser): https://halbarito.itch.io/into-the-wormhole

Heads up: the engine is very heavy. The Windows version is strongly recommended. The browser version can take ~10 minutes to load the first time (there's a Firefox tip on the page that makes it load in seconds).

I'd love to hear what you think, and how it runs on your PC!

Disclosure: AI tools were used for parts of the development.
