One click to generate a 3D animation of candy magically spelling out the word or image of your choice. There's a bonus umbrella scene to try as well.

This is a small side-project I had been wanting to make for a long time, but couldn't come up with the right approach to make it work until now. The biggest challenge was making it fast enough, I went through doing it in pure Python, to using numpy and now finally it runs on a GPU. I might have to rewrite it yet again, because the current server is very pricey! Hope you like it.

@naveenkumar It's not really in a shareable state, and would be pretty painful to run as it currently requires three servers (web front-end, queue server and one or more render servers).

Perfect 👌👌👌

Love this. Not loving your server bill after a day on Product Hunt.

@mickc79 The GPU costs the same (~$200 / month) whether it's being used or not, so I prefer to see it being used.

Not perfect, but mesmerizing. This got me to look at Candy Japan, which otherwise I would not have ever known about it.

How can I get it to work or is the site down now?

Looks nice just wish I could make it work it doesn't make a video it says can't connect to the server. Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work? I get this: ->Lost connection to server, please try again in a bit.
