A Cornerstone Studios engine
A world that breaks the way it was built.
Most voxel engines are their voxels — you see the blocks. Strata inverts that. The voxels are the invisible truth underneath, each one able to carry a real material; what you see will be a real mesh, regenerated from that voxel state whenever it changes.

Voxel backbone
Written on every placement today, and certified across a 99-module library.
Material payload
Each voxel carrying a real material — the ground truth for stress and fracture.
Live remeshing
The surface regenerating from voxel state as it changes. The hard part, and the bridge.
The inversion
That inversion is the whole idea. Because the material and the forces both live down at the voxel, breakage doesn't have to follow crack lines someone drew in advance — the aim is concrete that crumbles like concrete and steel that bends like steel, with the visible surface re-forming around whatever is left.
We're building the foundation first: getting that voxel backbone correct, because everything above it inherits whatever we get wrong. The simulation and the live remeshing come next. This is a hobby project for now — an engineering passion, not a product or company yet.
What actually runs today
Certified for cell coverage, not per-voxel equality — closing that gap is the current gate. The 5.8× is a fleet aggregate; per module the spread runs from 1.0× to 26×. All the numbers, with their caveats →
