What is around you

Jade and violet aurora veils cross a dark alpine lake, with snow-covered skerries, mist, birds, waterbirds and reflected sky.

How it moves

The viewer stays at the shore while weather, birds and the luminous sky bring small changes to the full-surround view.

What you can do

Use Touch the lake, press E, or tap the scene to send a luminous ripple through the water and brighten its reflected sky.

Music

Northern reverie uses glowing keys and gentle major harmonies after music is requested.

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

Aurorafy is a northern lights VR scene built around a fixed place on the shore. You can turn from the snow-covered islands to the sky and back to the lake without steering an avatar. The slow changes come from the aurora, weather and birds. This makes it useful when you want to look around at your own pace, though a fixed viewpoint does not guarantee comfort in a headset.

The lake is also the world’s one deliberate interruption. Touch the lake to send a visible ripple across its reflection, then let the surface settle while the veils keep moving overhead. On a computer or phone you can enter the same 360° scene without a headset. Music waits for your choice, so the first view is quiet.
