A downloadable game engine for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Hology Engine is a modern 3D game engine built on web technologies, designed for developers who want to create games that run directly in the browser while still supporting desktop and mobile builds.

Unlike traditional engines, Hology lets you combine game development and web development into one seamless workflow.

Install the full-featured editor on Windows, Mac, or Linux and start building immediately.

Create Games Faster

Hology includes everything you need to build complete 3D games:

  • Asset importing and prefab workflows

  • Landscape sculpting and foliage painting

  • Particle system editor

  • Animation and character controllers

  • Physics and collisions

  • AI navigation and navmesh generation

  • Third-person camera systems

Code with TypeScript

Write gameplay code using TypeScript, with built-in systems for:

  • Character movement

  • Animation control

  • AI navigation and behavior

  • Physics interaction

If you know web development, you'll feel right at home.

Powerful Materials and Shaders

Create completely custom materials using programmable shaders written in TypeScript — giving you full visual control without low-level graphics programming.

Real Web Technology

Use familiar tools like React to build in-game interfaces and HUDs.

Hology lets you use the web ecosystem to build games instead of learning a completely new stack.

  • Browser-based 3D games (itch.io)
