- arethuza 14y agoHow does this differ from cities that already have 3D building data in Google Maps/Earth?
- robhawkes 14y ago3D building data is only part of this, arguably the least interesting part. It'll be interactive and 'living', not much unlike city-strategy games. It'll also act as a real-time data view of cities in ways that aren't available on the Web yet.
- arethuza 14y agoNow that sounds cool! Are the simulations(games?) multi-user?

- rheide 14y agoI don't understand what this does and I can't play around with it without giving my email address. Is there a publicly available example online?
- robhawkes 14y agoIt's not out yet, but here is an early screenshot. The beta will be soon… http://imgur.com/TCG3itK http://imgur.com/TCG3itK
- samwillis 14y agoCould the OP explain a little more about what it is they are doing? A holding page and vague image of a block city doesn't tell us anything! There isn't enough here to up-vote yet.
- robhawkes 14y agoSure, it's basically a 3d visualisation of real life cities using the latest Web technologies. Part data visualisation, part game, part art – it's ambitious and will be an interesting view of the cities we live in. The aim is to have the beta up and running soon.
- fla 14y agoAlways curious, I gave my email address. The result is a mailing list preference panel. Thank you but no, I'm not hackable. -> [Unsubscribe] -> bye!
- robhawkes 14y agoThe beta is coming soon, there are no plans to use your email for anything other than information about the early access.
