Plays at ~3fps and with a ~1s latency on all interactions on Firefox, MBP2015 :( Slightly better on Chrome, but the menu is still incredibly laggy and the placement grid lags way behind the mouse cursor. Got to say that the performance isn't exactly that of Rollercoaster Tycoon, famously written by Chris Sawyer in lovingly hand-crafted assembly!

Very cool demo! Way too "dev design" to be fun to play, but a really awesome showcase of what can be done with pure web tech!

If you have a large screen, make sure you limit your window's size - otherwise the framerate will drop quickly.

considering you are okay with ideating with Gemini, you should focus on creating a concept frame of what a theme park actually looks like, and then just nail the art style. everybody knows what a roller coaster game is, but nobody knows what yours looks like :)
