    Pen and Teller’s Desert Bus game. I’d make a Faithfull remake of it down to the amount of time it takes to complete.

        Unless you did it in like full on Unreal engine with a perfect 1 to 1 model of the highway from (what was it? Phoenix to Vegas?) I could imagine someone like Activision or EA dumping .9 billion dollars into it and abandoning it after 3 years of work.

          Lidar of the terrain is free to download from the USGS. That’s stupidly easy to make into 3d models.

          Then you just need to model the structures on the route. but that’s mostly empty. You could do street-level photogrammetry by simply doing the drive with a few cameras on top of the car with GPS triggers, or even some 360 cameras.

          Plug it all into Reality Capture, and you’ve got a stew going.
