"Simulakros has been my passion project for more than 4 years. I wanted to create a game that I enjoy that plays and looks great, aiming for the highest possible level of quality that we could reach as a very small team. As the only designer/programmer it’s been hard managing everything and building the game, working only in my free time. It feels incredible to be able to finally release the game, I am so proud of it and I can’t wait to see the reaction from players!" - Sigfrido Cosmo from Sirio Games SYNOPSIS
