Designer's words:
Site to promote music video and short films directors Hammer and Tongs. The city features...

• Rime sensitive and randomised events
  
• Real weather (collected from met. center to give true London climate)
  
• Realtime night/day transitions.
  
• Hidden secrets all over

Our comments:
Fascinating side-scrolling city theme complete with 3-level parallax and day/night versions. Old-school pixel graphics with proper shading (many so called pixel designs lack) give life to the city. Is the fire effect really needed?
