Attempting to do something like Minecraft in HTML/Web by rendering graphics with pure CSS (using 3d transforms). No WebGL, no Canvas, no Game Engine of any kind. Today learned how to position objects in space, how to simulate camera (=changing point of view, had to be implemented manually) and made simple first person controller.

I'll be posting about it on my YouTube channel:

The next images contain 1000 cubes and at the moment rendering is very slow, but there is room for optimization: each side of each box is half-transparent and contains text ... or to be precise, kind of contains text - it is supposed to have text, but browser stops rendering all of the text at this point (as seen on the screenshots:)

I might need to divert from the original idea of using Minecraft-like biomes (ground, forest, mountains) and move to something like sky, to minimize the number of cubes necessary.
