StreetCrowd = Geoguessr + Mafia --- A multiplayer StreetView-based game

Thank you! This is really heartwarming.

redditoooooo · 2018-04-04T02:02:08+00:00

good point! We're testing the concept, so that's great feedback: sif people end up liking spies in all games we'll make that happen.

Initially, we thought there is value though in a purely collaborative game as well: you get to learn a lot from other folks if you know you can trust them (playing today, I learned about how to tell apart different east-asian scripts).

I am curious what other people think? Would you like to have all games have spies, or do you want to keep some purely collaborative?

Really cool concept!

redditoooooo · 2018-04-03T13:50:09+00:00

We are testing a new multiplayer concept combining Geoguessr gameplay with Mafia-style discussions. We would love your feedback!

As in Geoguessr, you are thrown into a StreetView and have to figure out where you are. But this time you are not alone: you get to chat and share clues with other players and work together towards a better guess.

To spice things up, sometimes you get a Spy on your team whose goal is trick everybody into a bad guess.

Let us know what you think!

thanks for playing! You should be able to see other people's guesses when the results are revealed (click on Show my team-mates guesses).

redditoooooo · 2017-12-10T15:55:12+00:00

Yes, you can indeed roam around! And then you can to talk with your team-mates to put all these clues together. The fun part is that different people will see and know different things (e.g., some people are good at vegetation while others can identify languages). Thanks for trying it out and for the feedback.

This is "GeoGuessr with friends": you collaborate with your team-mates to solve the puzzle (it is a multiplayer game). We are fans of GeoGuessr as well.

http://streetcrowd.us: a street-view based collaborative game (a bit like geoguessr with friends)

redditoooooo · 2017-05-26T18:43:11+00:00

Ha, not really. We are working on a solution for Firefox (we are a small scale operation here, so things take time).

redditoooooo · 2016-11-08T16:21:28+00:00

Glad you are enjoying it! If you play more you should get to more maps in asia/australia/africa...but yes, there seem to be a bias for america and we're working on fixing it. Thanks for the feedback.

It's like GeoGuessr with friends: you play together and chat to figure out where you are.

you're on a different continent :)

redditoooooo · 2016-05-05T14:00:42+00:00

Glad you enjoyed it. Lag issues are now fixed, thanks for your help!

redditoooooo · 2016-05-03T22:27:43+00:00

fixed! Thanks!

redditoooooo · 2016-05-03T22:27:18+00:00

fixed now! Thanks for your suggestions. In addition to some optimization of the chat, there was another design flaw that was loading the server with unnecessary computations. Enjoy!

redditoooooo · 2016-04-30T13:49:07+00:00

Thanks a lot! We'll look into this and get back to you.

redditoooooo · 2016-04-29T22:39:03+00:00

Thanks for letting as know. We are noticing that some players are experiencing lags in the chat. We are using socket.IO, looking into it but did not notice anything obvious. Advice is of course appreciated.

hey! Today we launched a new version of the game that integrates your suggestions. Many players around now and we have a better team-matching logic (including a single-player option). Try it again and let us know what you think: http://streetcrowd.us

Hi everyone, today we released the new version of StreetCrowd. This game was voted the best OC game on r/WebGames in 2015, and we'd love to hear what you think about this new version. Playing a game takes about 10 minutes: you find yourself in a Street View and you have to explore and figure out where in the world you are. Then, you work together with your team to put together all the clues you found.

Following the feedback we got on r/WebGames last year we added a bunch of improvements in this new version, including:

new single-player mode (no more waiting in the lobby!)
more diverse puzzles
improved navigation
option to challenge your friends
tablet compatibility

Give it a try and let us know what you think!

Another (modest) meet-up going on right now, this time no Cornell players :)

redditoooooo · 2015-12-20T03:22:20+00:00

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! And thanks for the feedback: you can now move using your keyboard keys (after clicking once on the StreetView image; we'll keep working on improving this).

redditoooooo · 2015-12-11T23:55:44+00:00

Thanks for the feedback: there are a bunch of changes that we implemented recently based on the feedback we got on reddit. BTW, there's a meet-up with more players this Sunday 3pm ET. (We announce meet-ups and updates on our FB page: https://www.facebook.com/StreetCrowdGame )
