How HEAVY WORDS
was made.

Signature technique: Canvas rigid-body typographic gravity. The page is one dependency-light HTML document with embedded styles and scripts; this guide is a second self-contained document using the same visual language.

Build sequence

01

Represent words as simple physical bodies.

02

Integrate velocity and gravity each frame.

03

Resolve floor and wall collisions.

04

Provide buttons for motion without pointer dependence.

Reproduce it

Copy the parent index.html, preserve the semantic landmarks, then isolate the render loop from the content layer. Keep canvas and 3D surfaces aria-hidden; the story must remain complete without them. Cap device pixel ratio at 2 for expensive scenes, listen to prefers-reduced-motion, and test the final composition at 375px before publishing.

Why this technique

Canvas rigid-body typographic gravity is not decoration here: it carries the site's central metaphor. That alignment between subject and mechanism is what keeps a technical showcase from becoming a demo reel.
