A downloadable vertical slice for Windows

A first-person vertical slice inspired by the immersive simulation design philosophy set in a pseudo-historical medieval world blessed with the technology of the future.

FEATURES

There are two objectives that can be approached in any order. There are two types of enemies, guards and hunters, the latter being capable of jumping. Windows can be broken with the dart, thus creating new pathways. When a dart hits any kind of surface, it will create sound, which will attract guards and hunters if they are close enough to hear it. By jumping towards an edge, the player character will automatically climb upwards. Lights and locked doors can be interacted with by activating a nearby dart.

HOW TO PLAY

Simugens is played with a keyboard and mouse setup. Movement is performed with the WASD keys and you may turn the camera by moving the mouse. You can fire darts by pressing the left mouse button. You can also hold CTRL to crouch or press C to toggle crouching. When in proximity to a dart that has been shot, pressing the right mouse button will activate it. To open doors and pick up objects in the world, press E. Once an object is being carried, you can press the E key once again to let go of the object. To exit the vertical slice, press the ESCAPE key.

NARRATIVE SETUP

You, a robot, have infiltrated a state post-office with the goal of retrieving crucial information regarding the whereabouts of the time machine which brought the man responsible for the medieval society's technological boost. To your dismay, the post-office is patrolled by high-security robots. Will you be able to complete your objectives and escape?
