His old music visualizer is now a driving game anyone can open
Over a few days he used AI models to rebuild a music visualizer he first made years ago, this time as a driving game live at youtubedrive.com. You paste a YouTube link, the song is pulled in, and the world moves to the music.
How it works
- The models write the game code in Three.js
- Pasting a YouTube link imports the song, and changing youtube.com to youtubedrive.com in a link imports it at once
- A fast first pass reads beats and volume so play can start in seconds
- A background job splits vocals from instruments for a better run later
- The site runs through AI Sites on a Cloudflare Worker with R2 storage and a 25 MB cap per song
Why it’s worth knowing
The remake is not a demo on his laptop. It is a live site where a stranger can drop in a song link and drive through it, and the hosting setup was put together for him too.
