Create your own Metaverse with our easy to use WalkTheWeb Metaverse software. While you do not have to be a programer to use it, programmers can easily take advantage of the Babylonjs.com Game Engine and build 3D Games and 3D Content using our 3D CMS software and your own code together. Multiplayer functionality and services are readily available from WalkTheWeb (keeps the work load off your server). Babylonjs.com supports browser based devices that can use WebGL and 3D Scenes can be viewed by numerous camera views for Computers, Cell Phones, Tablets, and Virtual Reality equipment (VR). WalkTheWeb uses PHP, JavaScript, and MySQL it can be hosted on any server capable of running WordPress.
