NEVER PUT YOUR FOOT DOWN
Your mission is to liberate hipster Binky McKee from the shackles of employment, and help him achieve his humble dream of becoming a penniless cycling legend.

Nearly two years in the making, Hipster City Cycle is a labor of love featuring four unique hand pixel’d neighborhoods and an original chiptune soundtrack by Patrick Todd and Joey Mariano of Cheap Dinosaurs.
