Most preloaders are an afterthought. A spinner. A skeleton screen. Something to tolerate before the real thing loads.

I wanted to make the loading moment the part people actually remember.

This is a CRT TV glitch preloader built entirely in Omma by Spline. When you hit a link, the screen floods with analog static monochrome noise, horizontal scan lines, the occasional VHS colour tear across the viewport. A branded SVG logo pulses in the top-left corner like a broadcast channel bug, jittering slightly the whole time. Then one white flash, and the site comes through underneath. The whole thing runs in under three seconds.

The logo feature was the part I enjoyed building most. It enters with a tuning-sweep animation, holds with a ghosting echo trail, then glitches out before the final reveal splitting into offset strips and cutting to black. Fully optional, swappable for any flat SVG.

Omma made the timing iteration fast. Tweaking when each noise strip dissolves, getting the jitter to feel unstable without being distracting, sequencing the logo exit against the reveal — that's the kind of thing that would take hours in raw CSS keyframes. In Omma it was a live feedback loop.

I've always loved visualization tools, and I am incredibly impressed by the newest one on the block: Omma! 🚀 Its capabilities and speed are simply mind-blowing. I started using it for the current hackathon, but I genuinely see so much long-term potential here.

A quick intro: I'm an engineer with a classic habit of making hard problems dead-simple, and simple problems dead-hard—it's a little curse you pick up when you really dive deep into engineering! 😂

Right now, you're looking at a work-in-progress because I actually ran out of credits while over-engineering things! For my project, I decided to tackle sheet metal bending. It looks simple on the surface, but it's actually a highly complex operation with a ton of variables. My goal is to build an educational game that simplifies the concept while highlighting the beautiful complexity of shaping mechanics. Hopefully, it might even inspire someone to study or produce something in this field.

I'll be continuing to build this out. If you want to show some support—or just drop a comment telling me to stop over-engineering it right now—I'd really appreciate it! 😊 In Progress Version 🎉 (I did solve penetrating to upper body however now it is totally wrong .While I was solving the upper tool , I did broke some functions , now it bends to penetrate to lower tool.) https://omma.build/p/sheet-metal-bending-simulator-kjbfn7 The progress will continue as reply to this submission.
