Skytail is a Three.js endless flight game that compiles from TypeScript to native C++ for macOS and Xbox using the GeaStack toolchain, eliminating the JavaScript engine. It showcases a deterministic world generator, spring physics mascot, and cross-platform WebGL/Web Audio emulation, making it a compelling demo for ahead-of-time compilation of web tech to consoles.

Target audience: game developers, web developers interested in native compilation, graphics engineers
