Crowd City Arcade Runner

Who You Are and What You Control

You command a moving cluster of people through a colorful city. The crowd is not a single character but a mass that follows your cursor or touch input. Your job is to steer that mass so it grows rather than shrinks. The game runs in a browser, so there is no download step before play. [IMG_0]

The Absorb-or-Be-Absorbed Rule

Every group on the street has a size. Run into a smaller group and its people join you. Run into a larger group and your crowd is absorbed instead. That single rule drives every decision: chase the weak, flee the strong, and never drift into a bigger cluster by accident. The city layout gives you corners and obstacles to break line of sight or change direction quickly. [IMG_1]

Reading the Street Before You Commit

Because size decides every encounter, the game rewards scanning ahead rather than reacting late. A safe route is one where the nearest groups are smaller than yours and no larger cluster is closing in from a side street. Patience matters early, when your crowd is small and most rivals can eat you. Once your numbers climb, the same streets become hunting grounds. [IMG_2]

Rounds Built for Short Sessions

Matches are quick and replayable, which suits players who want a few minutes of competition rather than a long campaign. Each round resets the crowd sizes, so a bad start does not carry over. The learning curve sits in decision-making, not controls: knowing when to chase, when to cut a corner, and when to stay clear of a larger crowd. [IMG_3]
