**What is this?**
|
|
|
|
This is a game that uses Geoguessr as inspiration.
|
|
|
|
**Why does this exist?**
|
|
|
|
Sadly, because of Google's predatory pricing strategy for their Maps api, geoguessr have had to modify their game in a detrimental way to cut costs.
|
|
|
|
I created this project to allow people to play the game how it used to be (or as close to it).
|
|
|
|
**What does the "Broken Streetview" button do?**
|
|
|
|
Sometimes a coordinate with no valid streetview is selected for you, you will just get a black screen.
|
|
|
|
If this occurs please click the "Broken Streetview" button and you will be provided with a new scene and the faulty coordinate will be removed from the database.
