PAXAL is a streaming game engine for the browser. Photoreal Gaussian-splat scenes load in under ten seconds the first time and under two seconds every time after. No download, no GPU requirement, a shareable URL.

PAXAL is a streaming game engine that runs photoreal, captured real-world scenes in any modern browser, on hardware AAA titles cannot run on. Gaussian-splat captures replace conventional geometry and shading; a three-worker pipeline streams chunks to a WebGPU renderer; OPFS persists every byte the user has already downloaded so the second visit cold-boots in under two seconds. The asymmetric advantage is reach: the same shareable URL plays on a phone, a tablet, an integrated-graphics laptop, and a desktop discrete card — at framerates a player will keep on screen.

PAXAL is a streaming game engine that brings photoreal, captured real-world scenes to any modern browser, including the large class of devices that cannot run conventional AAA titles. Captured scenes are stored as Gaussian splats — point-based primitives that encode geometry and view-dependent appearance in a single representation. A three-worker pipeline (manifest, decode, persist) keeps the main thread free for the WebGPU renderer; motion-aware level-of-detail keeps the framerate honest during fast driving; the Origin Private File System (OPFS) persists every byte the user has already downloaded, so the second visit cold-boots in under two seconds without an install step. The asymmetric advantage is reach. The same shareable URL plays on a phone, a tablet, an integrated-graphics laptop and a desktop discrete card. Every device sees the same captured world; the engine adapts quality and resolution to keep the frame budget. No app store, no driver dependency, no console exclusivity — a 12-character link is the whole product. PAXAL is the proof that AAA-quality interactive experiences can be delivered to commodity browsers. It is the technical milestone that makes a multiplayer, photoreal, open-world web game a single engineering quarter away rather than a decade.
