SOLSTICE: Planetary Balance (opens in new tab)

This is a submission for the What I Built Solstice Balance is an interactive 3D calibration simulator where the player stabilizes Earth's obliquity (target 23.44°) and rotational speed to prevent a simulated thermal collapse. Players use thruster-style controls to correct tilt and spin while reacting to procedurally generated cosmic disturbances (solar flares, gravitational tides, meteors). The goal was to make a tactile, physics-driven experience that ties to the June Solstice theme—balancin...
