Illyriad’s 3d Town rough demo with WebGL

The team development of Illyriad game try to use webgl API.
The result is a rough and ready demo.
The team tee us about this demo :
It’s very rough, not optimized and currently only runs on Chrome [working in all browsers that support WebGL is our priority]; but that’s kind of the point – its a technology tester to ensure we weren’t making a mistake.
I saw the screenshots and videos , but on my laptop the demo give me some errors.
The beginning is good , I hope will see in the future a good game, not just only a demo.
