Inspiration

I thought it would be fun to make. I'd want to give it a go, if I see it on my feed.

What it does

A game where you guess where you are based on a few images of the place.

How we built it

Using Google Maps API and Leaflet.js.

Challenges we ran into

I thought I couldn't use Leaflet due to the cross-site restriction at first, so I tried creating my own pixel-to-coordinate system that felt like chewing nails, but in the end I hard-copied Leaflet's scripts and resorted to a single map image instead of tiles.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I'm happy it works.

What we learned

I learned a lot about iframes and web maps, so that was nice.

What's next for Geoddit

The UI looks pretty ugly right now, working on it!
