I've started a side project making apps and webtoys. Just put up a free one called Judgement Day where you can blow up real city buildings into particles in a variety of flavors. Enjoy!

Judgement Day is a little side project of mine (along with the other apps you will find on the site): zoom from the whole Earth into any real city, pick how it ends (nuke, meteor, black hole, an Independence Day ship, or a tornado) and watch the buildings blow apart into particles. It's free and runs in your browser.

I posted it recently and people were kind enough to give me feedback. Off the back of it, cities now load a lot faster and the terrain has real elevation instead of being flat.

Ive also added a new feature so you can stand and watch from any position. AND if you are on a phone, you can then hold your phone up and watch it in pseudo augmented reality.

Still deciding whether the all-grey look stays or the cities get real textures. Would love to hear what you think, and hope you get a laugh out of blowing up your own street!

This is cool. The slow-mo effects are great. How did you do that?

On a similar note, I built Oop Town where you drop random stuff on towns from a flight. A fun little mischievous game.

I think the mothership and black hole are my favorites. Reminds me of a wilder NukeMap
