This looks fantastic. As another member of the OSINT community, this would only get better if you continued to develop landscapes that had signatures identical to the real world (road markings, architecture style, etc).
It would be such a fun tool whilst also being a great training resource.
Interesting concept. I assume you are familiar with GeoGuessr. The OSINT community like playing this sort of game, so you may get some good nerdy feedback. It is worth watching the regular YT live streams for "OSINT Curious" where they play Geoguessr. You should pick up some useful tips for the sorts of details people need to look for.
Oh yes, I am familiar with it indeed. Been playing it back in the day, and recently got my friends and SO into it and has been playing it daily for a couple of months now.
That was my main inspiration behind trying to make it into a videogame. I have a pretty good insight into what works and what frustrates about using StreetViews for your game locations, and I have a few ideas on how to make it into a more enjoyable experience, and how to enhance it on top of that. Oh, and I don’t plan on limiting myself with only real-world locations.
I’m aiming to be releasing content updates every few weeks, so we’ll see how it goes.
