Canadian independent game studio releases another quirky mobile game
Global Spy is new Entry in Niche Spy Game Genre
Vancouver, BC, August 6, 2020--(T-Net)--Yuyosoft Innovations, a small, independent game studio based in Vancouver BC, today officially released its mobile game Global Spy for iOS and Android devices.
Since the early days of Carmen Sandiego and the 007 games, there have been few spy-themed videogames available, so this is a welcome addition to the genre.
The game is expected to pique the interest of those interested in cities around the world, and navigating efficient routes among them with a map, against a countdown timer. In addition, Global Spy is essentially a worldwide treasure hunt, so it will likely appeal to those who enjoy geocaching and GPS geolocation games.
"As we do in our other titles, we couldn't help including some unusual elements in Global Spy. For example, the way a spy will sometimes irritate you by escaping to a neighboring city, at the very moment you capture her," laughed Rufus Lin, the game's chief designer.
One interesting aspect of the game is that it eschews trendy 3D or isometric graphics and delivers an entertaining experience entirely in 2D graphics.
"This is intentional," explains Lin. "I believe that all the 3D MMORPG games seem to blend into each other at the end of the day. There are still fresh, immersive experiences to be built with 2D graphics, and this explains the prevalence of adult-targeted cartoon series on the streaming platforms."
In keeping with the somewhat quirky nature of the game, it has its own web site, globalspy.yuyosoft.com, featuring playing tips and the background stories of selected spies from the game.
