Meridian
2050.

Drag orbit around the skyline. Scroll or pinch to zoom. Right-drag or two-finger drag to pan. Click any building to inspect it, or use the minimap to reframe.

↑ ↓ ← → orbit · + − zoom · Space pause · R reset · Esc close.

2050 gameplay: Space jumps on foot; E gets out of your car or re-enters it when nearby. Your parked car stays in the world. Physical portal fields now activate when entered, with E and a visible interaction button as alternatives. World controls reveals the simulation and graphics settings.

Walk explores the city in third person with an athletic character: WASD runs, drag looks freely, Shift sprints, and R recovers. Use Architecture Walks to visit landmark plazas. The main island now has nine times its original land area, plus an airport island.

Fly plane starts airborne over the bay. W/S adjust throttle, A/D control rudder, U/J pitch down/up, and H/K roll left/right. Numpad 8/5/4/6 also works. Buildings and water cause an arcade crash; R respawns. Drag to look around in either vehicle; C recenters.

Drive puts you behind the wheel in third person. WASD drive, Space handbrake, Shift boost, R recover, Esc exit. Click the scene if keys are not responding. Driving uses simplified arcade physics.

Wind field reveals animated streamlines. Structure reveals conceptual exoskeletons. Flyover takes a slow cinematic orbit. Every view stays interactive.

Meridian Bay is an invented city. Dimensions, wind flow, traffic, and structural systems are illustrative—not measured data, CFD, or safety analysis. Reduced-motion preferences start the city paused; choosing Walk, Drive, Fly, Jetpack or Metro resumes it so you can always play.

Raven fighter: X or Launch fires large unguided arcade missiles, with six rounds and automatic rearm. Gear-up flight is faster; G lowers the gear for the airport approach speed range. Space remains airbrake. Explosions are stylized game effects; the city stays intact.

Airport landing: press L to line up with runway 09. G toggles landing gear. Approach aligned and nearly level with a gentle descent and moderate speed; S reduces throttle, Space brakes. After touchdown, use A/D to taxi and W + J for takeoff. This is an arcade landing model, not pilot training.

Landscape journeys: Golden Dunes lies west of the city; Frostline Peaks lies north. Glasswater Lake feeds the upper stream, Cascade Falls, and Silver River. Use the atlas’s World view or the walking destination selector. Terrain and water routes are fictional, stylized landscapes.

Metro & Portals: Metro boards the elevated M1 loop. Exit at the next station or use Exit now to arrive on foot; drag looks around. Portals pauses only your player while choosing; trains and world activity keep running. Travel is instantaneous and arrivals are on foot. Approach an in-world portal and press E or walk through the field to open the same network.

The oversized Saturn and hovering UFOs are deliberate fantasy elements. Jeddah Tower is shown as a future-completed design study; the actual project is under construction and its published design exceeds 1,000 metres. It does not replace the completed-building top-ten ranking.

Persistent world, random player spawns: Walk, Drive and Fly choose safe varied starting places without regenerating the map. Metro boarding attaches to an existing train instead of restarting its timetable. Portal menus pause only the local player. Explicit World Pause remains a single-player control. The shared-state snapshot is groundwork for multiplayer, not a multiplayer server.

Jetpack: flies on the same control map as the Raven. W/S set throttle, U/J pitch the nose down/up, H/K roll (banking turns you), A/D yaw. Thrust is vectored along the nose, so pitch down and you dive. Space still gives direct lift and Shift direct descent for takeoff and landing; Q+E holds a hover and brakes everything. Land before pressing F to remove the pack. The jetpack attaches at your current on-foot location; from other modes it uses a safe player spawn. This is an original arcade implementation inspired by San Andreas controls.
