Developer @cdngdev built a playable video game of the entire real city of San Francisco using Apple Maps data — you can climb buildings, 'steal' cars, and explore anywhere, and it's live to play.
The bill is the other headline: over the last 30 days he served 41TB of data across 137 million requests, and the total Cloudflare hosting cost was remarkably low — a striking demo of free map data plus cheap edge hosting powering a data-heavy geospatial game.
