A Strange City

Trying to get paid for someone else's game templates, assets... at best, this is shovelware, at worst, it's a scam/cash grab. Today's "effort" from these guys is A Strange City, and it's a garbage endless runner/platformer slapped together with the godawful Cocos2D game development engine.

Fun casual game in "badlands art", dont let the fish eat you.

It is certainly interesting... but it's really clunky (resembles more a student project - while not being one - than anything; maybe a asset flip) aaaaaand... there're definitively better games to play.
