Introduction:
At Oracle we love gaming! Both from gaming on a sofa to creating games and running them at scale. Babylon.JS is very interesting for us but we haven't explored it yet. Can you help us and test it on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)?
Challenge:

Feel free to bring your "best 3d foot forward" and make the game cool and interesting. If you decide to build Pong we would love that too.
BabylonJS:
Before you go any further, we strongly encourage EVERYONE to Start Your Babylon.js Journey Here: (https://doc.babylonjs.com/journey/theFirstStep)

Question: develop@minepi.com

Do you have a mobile web app idea you’d like to release to over 35 million users? Build it on Pi Network and have the chance to be featured to our users, a Meta Quest! There is also a potential for a $15k developer grant.
Plus, cryptocurrency rewards for all!
Your project should address a real user need, and be intuitive to use and accessible to everyday people. Additionally, apps should use the Pi SDK and support the use of Pi cryptocurrency, either as an optional feature or as a core functionality.
Pi’s platform is accessible to every developer. With our simple APIs, zero previous blockchain or crypto experience is necessary– you can work on any ideas that excite you.
