"Tip the Ship" is a reimagined interactive battleship simulation that is part of the Cloud Computing installation at NEXT '19. Built using Google Cloud GPU, it showcases the power and effeciency of cloud rendering.

To promote their new cloud GPU offering, Google Cloud partnered with Stink Studios to create an interactive demo that showcases the power of GPU cloud rendering. 

Given the 6 weeks timeline and access to the GPU-farm, the team at Stink created a reimagined 2-players battleship game that blended quirky characters with absurd CGI attack moves and water physic — the most difficult and demanding rendering task. We rendered 36 unique battle sequences that make up the gameplay, which would not be possible without the use of cloud GPU.

This demo was part of the highlights at Google Cloud NEXT '19 in San Francisco, Tokyo, and London.
