What happens if you want your players to be able to spin a globe and select a major city? Say, for example, one level of your game takes place in Newark, New Jersey. How can they get there?

They can't!

Not without a map, anyway. So, here's a map. It's pretty straightforward, but also relatively sexy. Watch the video. Download the source code. All of it's released under CC Attribution, so you can use it for your own stuff, so long as you provide attribution to us.

There's other stuff to write here, but I can't remember what that might be.

nice & accurate.

A Newark, New Jersey pin is strangely absent from the globe, but regardless, this seems to be an excellent contribution.
Thank you.

'I' don't have much imagination anymore, but 'I' had a few moments of amusement while spinning the globe at variable speed and imagining terrible consequences with millions of screams.

Wow. That's a great idea; I will have to note that down.

The spin lifts up the citizens and their things for a while against the gravity and when the globe rotates less fast again everyone and everything falls down in a chaos. Where a cow stands on a bed and people find themselfs on stairless towers where you have to rescue them before daddy God comes back to his library, and sees the mess on his globe ... beside the mess of the words on the floor...

Thats a cool contribution.
I made a special earth glas shader for this, have fun with it:
