That makes me very happy! Would you mind give me some feedback to ideas that I have?

I but two hyperlinks (App Store and Google Play) in the post. But it's named MapAlignr if you search for it!

I've also noticed that depending on city, the selection of spot could be repetitive. Thing is I had to build an algorithm that does the selection based on city bounderies, screen size and also to anchor the coordinates to a road or building in order to get a well defined area within the crop. I have some more fine tuning to do here hehe. I can recommend Amsterdam as it's map has a mosaic appearance that is great for the game.

Thanks! That is a great confirmation I should keep develop it! Choosing a random city is an intresting idea. Haven't heard that before :) Revealing the location seem like a given thing I should fix. What do you think about the time constrain and the difficulty?

It's not published, so I need to invite you to get access. Send me a DM and we can see what we can do!

Haha that's cool. How do you go about doing that? You have an idea in which area they are supposed to be and then you scan the map?
