Godot 4.7.1 p0014 published Forward Mobile WebGPU beta
A published Godot game running through WebGPU.
The initial backend lineage is David Walter's MIT-licensed dwalter/godotwebgpu work. Studio Foundation maintains the Godot 4.7.1 port, scoped patches, renderer fixes, build/export tooling, validation, release evidence, MCP tooling, and AI-native distribution layer. Official Godot remains upstream.

WebGPU support: checking…
Enter the colosseum Minimal showcase Repository p0014 templates Evidence matrixInitial load downloads a ~45.8 MB wasm (~12.0 MB over GitHub Pages gzip). In the recorded 12 Mbps p0014 run, frames appeared around 13 seconds and pipeline construction occupied about 2 seconds of engine startup.

Patches 0015–0022 are not in the p0014 downloads. Forward+ hardware execution is investigation evidence, not a successful-render claim.
What the published demo proves
- Official Godot 4.7.1 commit
a13da4feb8d8aefc283c3763d33a2f170a18d541is the base. - The p0014 archives use the checksum-locked patch range
0001–0014and Forward Mobile. - The browser probe observes an active WebGPU canvas context and rejects WebGL/WebGL 2 requests.
- On the recorded P40 run, Chariot held 60 fps at ~489–631 draws and ~23M primitives/frame with 0 validation errors.
WebGPU support is beta. Safari/iOS, native mobile devices, and non-NVIDIA GPU vendors remain unverified. The p0014 Jolt web build also has a known concave-collider regression documented in the evidence matrix.
Reproduce it
The engine integration, minimal scene, and Chariot source are available in
the repository. Chariot is public for reproducibility but remains all
rights reserved under games/LICENSE.
Download both p0014 templates, verify their SHA-256 values from the
evidence matrix, and export with just export-browser-webgpu.
That command applies the WebGPU shell handoff the official editor cannot
emit for these templates.
AI-native positioning
“AI-native” describes how Studio Foundation is operated: an MCP server, agent workflows, Blender asset tooling, and public validation commands. It is separate from the renderer claims above, which are scoped to named artifacts, hardware, scenes, and measured caveats.
