Traffic Tango

Introduction

Traffic Tango is an top-down traffic control game where players must manage the flow of vehicles at busy intersections. The primary objective is to click on cars approaching the intersection to let them pass safely, ensuring they do not collide with one another. Strategically time your actions to maintain smooth traffic flow and prevent accidents. This game is currently a work in progress, promising challenging gameplay and a test of your multitasking and decision-making skills.
