How do I simplify this map?

[Rust_Bucket]

Which settings do I change to make it look like the map seen in Jet-Lag: The Game on Youtube? In the description, it says the map date is from Open Street Map, but nothing more. Any help would be appreciated!

solutions:

1.) Hacker way: Carto solution:

• GitHub - gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto: A general-purpose OpenStreetMap mapnik style, in CartoCSS
  • (remove all unwanted layers(
    ~ keep wanted layers
    • “landcover.mss”
    • “water.mss”
    • “roads.mss”

2.) Hacker way: OpenMapTiles Solution.

• GitHub - openmaptiles/openmaptiles: OpenMapTiles Vector Tile Schema Implementation
  • keep only : Water, Landuse, Transportation layers ( remove the others… )

3-8. ) … other OSM solutions …

9.) Not OpenStreetMap based:

• Go NaturalEarthData Natural Earth » Features - Free vector and raster map data at 1:10m, 1:50m, and 1:110m scales
• create map with QGIS.

There are loads of different “renderings” of OSM data.

One nice way to explore them is https://openwhatevermap.

And there’s of course the wiki.

There are also dedicated services for customized styles (mapbox is most known), but that’s probably overkill for your needs.
