Billiards, Pool and Snooker web based

Snooker, Pool, Billiards 

An open-source billiards game bringing realistic physics to your browser. Developed with a focus on precision mechanics, this project models complex ball-to-ball and ball-to-cushion interactions using modern threejs WebGL. Practice and play online for free. no login required.

Game Modes

• Nine Ball: Practice your break and share your best replays.
• Snooker: The ultimate challenge—can you hit a 147 for the leaderboard?
• Three Cushion: A rigorous test of physics and player skill.
• Vs. The Claw: Pit your skills against our AI bot.
• Online Multi-player: Join the lobby for a two-player match.

Features

• Advanced Physics: Accurate modeling of backspin, sidespin, and cushion bounces based on academic papers (Han 2005, Mathavan 2010).
• Cross-Platform: Runs in any modern browser using WebGL—Desktop, Mobile, and even low-power devices like the Raspberry Pi.
• Record & Playback: Save your best breaks to watch later.
• Open Source: Built with TypeScript and Three.js.

Controls

Playable via Mouse, Touch, or Keyboard:

Aim	Arrow Keys (Left/Right) or Mouse
Fine Aim	Ctrl + Arrow Keys
Spin (Top/Back)	Arrow Keys (Up/Down)
Side Spin	Shift + Arrow Keys (Left/Right)

Technical Deep-Dive

For the curious, the physics engine incorporates:

• Sliding & Rolling Motion: Dynamic friction transitions.
• Cushion Interaction: Numerical solutions for compression and restitution phases.

The game models 8-ball, 9-ball, snooker, carom, three cushion billiards practice and online. View the full source code, technical diagrams, and equations on GitHub.
