This plays the recording with the actual Tribes engine, compiled to WebAssembly — the same playDemo() path the game itself uses. The engine is about 7 MB; it then streams just the game data this recording touches from the archive, as it touches it. Every piece is cached and shared across the site, so a second demo on the same map costs almost nothing. Nothing is fetched until you press play.

Great OT game of stonehenge.  ASK took it 6-5.  I am light defense.  Disclaimer:  I didn't play that great of a game, I was a little tight.  Enjoy
