The videos are all created with AI. It’s a pipeline of Flux (images), Kling (video), and mmaudio (audio). The videos aren’t always historically accurate to the last detail. They might incorporate elements of folklore or have details from popular beliefs about the way things looked rather than the latest academic research on how they looked.
I’m thinking a lot about how to make the game more interactive. One thing that makes Geoguessr so fun for me is that you can move infinitely and always find more details to help you pinpoint the location. I want Time Portal to have a similar quality. I have a few ideas to try soon that will hopefully make the game more interactive and infinite.
Two small comments - if I know the precise year it is kinda hard to seek, especially at the ends of the scale. Maybe if you could hold the button to go faster?
And the text overlay on the map at the end mostly prevents me scrolling it (and seeing where the correct place was)
why don't you drag to get close enough and then use the buttons?
