What the Simpsons Hit & Run Browser Port Is
A first-person write-up by the porter describes a full port of the PC version to WebAssembly and WebGL. It runs at native resolution, downloads game data over the network as needed, adds Xbox-version extras such as lens flares and widescreen, mixes audio with AudioWorklets and converts cutscenes to H.264 video.
The page itself credits no one and links no source code. The write-up says the port is based on source code that leaked in 2021, so its legal status is unclear and it could disappear.
