• Dev Diary 📕 - 5 December 2024

  The project started in 2019 as a passion project developed for fun by Sigfrido Cosmo (game designer) in his free time, as a fan of roguelikes and third person shooters he wanted to experiment creating this unique mix of genres that is quite rare. As the game started to take shape, two friends joined the development: Filippo Colombo (level designer) and Lorenzo Erialti (sound designer and composer). From the beginning we knew we wanted the game to be about advanced AI technology and taking control of synthetic bodies, we felt it was a good match with the gameplay loop of roguelikes that is about dying over and over. The name “Simulakros” is a mix of the latin word “simulacrum” meaning representation of something, and the greek word “mechanikos” meaning mechanical, with an additional play on word with the ending SimulakrOS which stands for Operating System. In 2022 the game started to bec…
