About Buddy Simulator 1984
Buddy Simulator 1984 is a retro adventure that simulates the experience of hanging out with a best buddy, self-published by its independent developer and released on 18 February 2021. Thanks to next generation AI technology made in the new Anekom OS, your buddy learns from you and constantly adapts to your interests and personality. Say your favourite colour is green: of course your buddy will remember it, and when video games are your thing, they are your buddy's thing too.
Most importantly, your buddy can play games with you thanks to the latest and greatest graphical software. The Video Game Hub opens with an intense game of rock, paper, scissors and a dangerous round of hangman, and three whole new games wait to be played together. Will the human come out on top, or will the AI triumph? Every session feeds the learning system, which keeps evolving to match your tastes and make sure you are having fun.
It is the eighties and the future seems close, with flying cars and holographic video calls only five years away. Your experience is meant to be unique, and your choices shape the story towards one of several unique endings, discovering the power of companionship or something far stranger. The developers warn that it contains flashing lights and colours as well as themes of emotional manipulation, depression and anxiety, so it may not suit every audience.
The game runs on Windows. It runs on Windows 7 or newer and supports English for the interface and all text. The minimum setup needs a dual-core Intel or AMD processor at 2.8 GHz, 1 GB of RAM, a GeForce GTX 550 or Radeon HD 5770 graphics card, DirectX 10 and 400 MB of available storage. The game holds a USK 16 rating and is ideal for players who enjoy unsettling retro stories, shifting genres and narratives that reward curiosity.
