Renegade

Screenshots1 / 2

A blue-tinted street scene shows a subway train car in the center with three player characters positioned on the purple pavement below it. The HUD displays health points and time at the top left, with a score panel visible in the upper right. Pixel-art sprites represent the characters in 8-bit style against a tiled brick background. The train and surrounding architecture use a gray color palette, creating contrast with the vibrant blue and purple environment.
