 [FAQ] 

Q) Why is my character not showing? 

You have to enable English (India) captions. 

Q) It doesn't move! 

Use the web version, VR Version or the mobile version of YT. It's broken in embeds and TV because of new youtube layout rollout. 

Q) How to navigate through wormholes? 

Apologies for not clarifying in the video :( Pause the video, use A/D to move to the correct universe, then resume!

Q) Why aren't there hitboxes?

YouTube doesn't support them, it's just a spherical 360° video!

Q) Why is it janky!? 

The space exploration company is evil! It intentionally chose the worst ones possible for you! (actually my code sucks, but imma blame it on my laptop which keeps BSOD'ing XD ) 

Q) Why does it sometimes collide with the bounds? 

It causes distortions to happen! NO COLLIDE NO DISTORT! (truth: i just am too lazy to program that lol) 

Q) How does it relate to connections?

 Because of the wormholes, as they connect you to different universes to save your life!

Q) How did ya create it!

 I programmed a renderer that uses Three.js with the help of Perplexity AI. Which was then put through FFMpeg a few times and Google's spatialmedia python library to inject 360° Metadata.
