Houdini but this could have been done in any package. Look up "Pin Toy" + the name of your software.

Okay, my mind was somewhat blown when I saw Octane running in my browser. Crazy. But, why-o-why have a sample scene that produces tons of fireflies right out of the gate? That just doesn't make sense. And it is such a simple scene, that neither inspires or truly showcases Octane's abilities... Maybe time for another Octane contest?...

We needed something that loaded in seconds. But if anyone wants to submit a better, but just as quick loading sample, we'd be happy to use it!

But if you have spare time, better to focus on the VR contest if you can - first round of winners is announced May 26th. Happy rendering!

Otoy website have not optimized images ..why to load huge PNG files and not light JPEGS?
Examples:

can be 285KB Jpeg

300KB http://home.otoy.com/wp-content/uploads ... 00x323.png
can be 32KB Jpeg

http://home.otoy.com/wp-content/uploads ... 00x498.png
can be 55KB Jpeg
