Description
City Tuesday is an open world platformer game about the last five minutes before a terrorist attack. You play a man who has become stuck reliving those five minutes before the disaster. Learn the city, track down the bombs, and possibly become unstuck from time.History
The idea for City Tuesday was concieved in 2010 on the BART train on the way home from the Game Developers Conference. Chris saw a particularly graphic warning sign about escaping from the train and at that moment he decided to make a game about the people stuck in this world.Warning: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in /nfs/c03/h04/mnt/50217/domains/returntoadventuremountain.com/html/files/presskit/sheet.php on line 428
