An oblique equirectangular world map showing the longest straight line over land

Inspired by a comment by [email protected] under SurrealPartisan's recent post in this community

The longest straight line over land is this great circle (see NeatNit's comment here if the link isn't working for you, sorry about that). But, of course, most great circles don't look very straight on most maps. To correct for this, I (very roughly) got the northernmost point of the great circle and put that value into G.Projector to get an oblique equirectangular projection that treats the great circle as if it were the equator on a regular map

The base map is Wikimedia Commons' equirectangular projection map

Playing a rally game with a guitar

Apologies for the lack of a non-youtube link, the video file is too big for streamable. I'm not making any money off of this

This was an absolutely terrible experience that I share only to entertain. Turns out that having guitar muscle memory and rally game muscle memory does not translate to having guitar-game muscle memory!

[Other] Have you played Dark Queen of Mortholme?

It's an anti-soulslike, I suppose. You are the final boss, and the hero is a pathetic little mortal that you crush with one swing of your fell weapon. Except they just keep coming back, and they keep learning your tricks

It's a very short game, maybe half an hour to play through. I had fun with it

Available on itch.io (pay what you want) and Steam (currently half price)
