SimCity was a great game on PC, but for some reason, we never really enjoyed it quite as much on mobile… Although our smartphones are (by far) powerful enough to run the rather complex tasks you are required to complete as the mayor of a developing city, perhaps it was the complex tasks themselves that prevented us from loving SimCity on mobile?

Korong is based on a very simple idea, I wanted to make an infinite runner-ish game where you don’t have to start everything from the beginning when you lose your character.
