The Hunt for Red Octangles is a 3D blimp-reconnaissance game using Three.js that turns real-world locations into 'Grid' type maps from the movie Tron. You can jump to almost any city in the world (Manhattan, Paris, London, or even your own neighborhood) and the game will procedurally generate the 3D buildings and road networks using the Overpass API.

The Tech Stack:

Three.js: For the 3D rendering and searchlight effects.

Overpass API (OSM): For fetching building footprints and road vectors.

Photon API (Komoot): For the geocoding/search functionality.
