Some time ago I played an online game called GeoGuessr. I liked the concept so much that I made my own version of it. I just wanted to use own built coloVR-platform for it. Also I did not want to use Google API’s as their pricing has gone up significantly. So, I used iStreetview to grab some Google Streetview images around the world. As far as I understood Google’s T’s&C’s this is perfectly OK as long as the images are attributed to Google.
I just had finished a geo-game for a client and realised that I could modify that base for this project too. This is a very simplified version though. This doesn’t save game progress state at all at the moment. If you reload the page it will start from the beginning.
First, I wanted to call this thing “Geoff” as it has word GEO in it. Then a word GUEFF puffed into my mind. It has word GEOFF and GUESS combined so OK that’s it 🙂
