Glitch + GoogleStreetView = GlitchPlace.com

I made a simple mashup with the Glitch API and the Google Maps API...
if you enter you can use your Glitch avatar to walk/jump around the world!!

I added some places, just click on the right list to teleport to one of these locations.

As soon as you enter the website you will see my/UXRoot avatar. at the top of the page there is a button “Use Your Avatar - Sign In”, after you sign in, (it takes a second the first time), your avatar will show up.

If you know an specific address you want to visit, just write it (in the right panel) and press enter and you will be teleported (for free :) to the new destination.

This is really a test website, I wanted to test some code that uses avatars that I’m using for a new Glitch (external) Game!!  (I have no idea how should we call that)

www.GlitchPlace.com

Enjoy the World!

  • the problem with the search street box, is that it needs the exact address like maps.google.com needs :(
    the best way is to search it on maps.google.com and then with the full exact address, paste it on GlitchPlace

  • I like this one of UXRoot's avatar that I found by wandering around with it (no log-in required to play with his avatar).

  • @WindBorn at the right bottom of the page, there is a box that says "Search streets..."
    maybe it doesn't show because of the size of the screen?
