Help yourself to the city’s valuables in Catburglar, a stealth platformer inspired by Trilby: The Art of Theft. Play as Cynth, and use your wits and agility to steal through a series of highrise apartments, outwitting guards and security cameras as you make your way to your goal.

Amazing post and incredible work. I have a question: how does other engines, specially Unity, deal with multi threading on the web? Do they also rely on SharedArrayBuffers and had to disable it? What about COOP/COEP? Is their strategy totally different?

Seems like exactly the same tradeoff: single threaded unless you enable COOP/COEP and fall into the problems of doing so.
