Hello everyone,

I am Mr. Flightmussy and the creator of the website Movie Scene Map. It is mainly a movie site, but there are also many locations where video games are set.

Maybe I added them since I really liked gaming when I was younger and that I am nostalgic. On the map, there are currently 1826 games with 690 locations.

I am partly posting here because I want everyone to check the website and partly because I want feedback so that I can improve Movie Scene Map.

I am especially struggling with finding posters for video games, because this counts as a commercial project although it does not have any revenue yet.

It will take several months before I earn any money, where I could finally afford better equipment and proper licenses. Meanwhile, I want to make Movie Scene Map better in every single way I personally can.

Every single comment will be considered to make Movie Scene Map better. Basically, I let the community decide the direction of the project while I sit in the basement and do the development.

I understand that this might be a promotion post, so please delete this if you want to.

Best regards, Mr. Flightmussy

    I think this is more of a data problem. I struggle to get data for certain places. Licensing is not easy to deal with. Therefore, I mostly rely on Wikipedia for now.

    For example there are many dots in Finland because they have governmental database which I am free to use. Hence, a lot of data in Finland even if it is a country of only 5,6 million people.

      Even so, if there would be any big stuff this or that place, not many, but even one, then wiki would have a note on the scene too.

      It’s ok to not include everything, even smallest things.

      Like, my place possibly was a hero to some viral stupid clip from internet, more infamous than anything positive… but no need to include that in the big awesome list of big awesome scenes.

        Thanks for calling it a awesome list!

        I want to just get all filming locations and maybe some more video game locations + anime because that is fun and I can relate to it as well. Therefore, I go for the easiest ones before trying more complicated things to get more and more locations. I am also using feedback as a way to help me to do that.
