sparksbudImmersive 360° world
Aqua Ballet
A quiet 360 reef of whales, turtles, rays, jellyfish and schools of fish in a softly lit underwater panorama.
What is around you
Living coral shelves, bubbles, fish schools, whales, turtles, manta rays, ribbon jellyfish and a luminous lower garden fill the reef.
How it moves
You remain among the reef while schools gather and open around a passing giant, and wildlife crosses the surrounding water.
What you can do
This is a place to look around rather than a world with a separate scene action.
Music
Wings of morning is a floating-chime melody that starts only if you turn music on.
Controls
Drag or touch to look around; the arrow keys turn the view and R returns to the opening direction. Space pauses motion, M starts or stops music, F enters fullscreen, and the settings control changes motion speed and brightness.
Browser and device
A current browser with WebGL 2 and graphics acceleration is required. On a compatible WebXR browser, including Meta Quest Browser, the app can offer Enter VR.
Inside this world
Aqua Ballet places you within an underwater VR reef rather than behind a window looking at one animal. Turn to follow a whale or ray, then look down toward the luminous lower garden as smaller fish cross the open water. The scene gives distant and near movement different jobs: the large animals set the scale, while bubbles, fish and jellyfish keep the space alive between their passes.
There is no action button to hunt for in this world. You stay among the coral while the wildlife moves around you. That choice keeps the visit focused on observation, on a headset or in the browser’s 360° view. Sound is optional and starts only when you request it.
