I’ve seen a couple of flight simulator video games created with 3D maps over time,, however Journey Cat to allow you to pilot a airplane as a cat. Flying a feline-piloted airplane previous the Eiffel Tower in Paris or across the Statue of Liberty in New York is as enchanting because it sounds. It’s also lots of enjoyable.
Journey Cat makes use of the Google Maps API’s 3D view to create a primary flight simulator that lets you discover wherever on the planet. Or drive! Clicking on a highway within the 3D map view immediately locations your cat on terra firma, behind the wheel of a automotive. Press ‘B,’ and the automotive transforms right into a 3D mannequin of a ship, letting you discover waterways with equal ease.
The attraction of Journey Cat lies primarily within the whimsical nature of its protagonist – a fearless feline pilot. Flying a cat-piloted airplane round a number of the world’s most well-known landmarks elevates what might need been an easy flight simulator right into a heartwarming and imaginative expertise. Google’s 3D map view enhances the realism of the sport, delivering an immersive low-altitude flying expertise.
Whether or not you’re hovering above landmarks or cruising by way of streets and waterways, Journey Cat provides a pleasant mix of exploration and whimsy that helps to set it other than different map-based flight simulators.
Journey Cat is not the one sport to have been launched by TripGeo this week. You may additionally take pleasure in Video Scramble. Whereas circuitously map-related, Video Scramble has a cartographical hyperlink, as it’s impressed by TripGeo’s common Scrambled Maps sport.
Scrambled Maps is a each day puzzle sport that challenges gamers to rearrange a scrambled map of a special metropolis every day. Video Scramble builds on this idea with an identical problem – this time requiring gamers to unscramble an AI-generated video. There are 20 movies to unravel in whole. Thus far, I’ve efficiently unscrambled 16 of them, and I can affirm all of them share a distinctly monsterish theme.
