I'm working on a geography guessing game. This is mostly in order to learn the technologies that the team I manage is working on, as I don't get as much hands-on time as I'd like at work. But it's a fun game and it's improving at a rapid clip. I'd love your feedback.

Really fun, I love playing GeoGuessr, but really like the idea of using videos.

Some notes on the UI:

* I found the 50/50 split between video / map a bit annoying, especially on a 13" MacBook

* The volume slider takes up a lot of valuable space, and felt like your normal scrubber to scroll through the video

* Once you confirm a location, the whole UI changes again

* Overall (especially on my smaller screen), there was a lot of scrolling involved to get to buttons
