Hey everyone! I'm trying to gain access to the interactive microsite for the film The Rover (2014). I remember it being really impressive with features like interactive maps and timelines, but now I can't get into the full site. I've searched around the original website but it's no longer hosted. I've even reached out to the company, Column Five, and a developer from GitHub. If anyone has any tips or leads on how I might access the material or any backups, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Hey! I managed to spin up the interactive map at this link: https://koso.dev/playground/rover/. It looks like it's functional for the most part! Hope this helps! Just a heads up, if you're a fan of dev work, check out my portfolio at https://koso.dev.
I found some info on GitHub related to the site. You can check this out: https://github.com/greenstick/rover-site-dev. Maybe it'll help you get what you're looking for!
Have you tried the Wayback Machine? Sometimes you can find archived pages there if you know the original URL. It can be a lifesaver for inactive sites!
I did check the Wayback Machine, but unfortunately, nothing came up. I've been digging through leads for about 24 hours now. I might not be that experienced with this, but I found some code on GitHub from one of the developers and I've tried reaching out to them.
Thanks for that! Unfortunately, I keep getting a bad gateway message with the link. I've got the 'time of a collapse' feature working, but the 'remapping the future' map isn't cooperating.
