Two years ago today, we released Buddy Simulator 1984 to the world. During that time, we were so scared, stressed, and worried that all of the work we had put into that passion project of 1s and 0s would never pay off...but we couldn't be more thankful that it did. Throughout the past two years, we have garnered such an incredible community of amazing and talented fans from around the globe to love and support our little game. Buddy Sim lived and thrived because of you all. Two years later and we're still so thankful for each and every one of you! In honor of Buddy Sim turning two, we have a few ways we want to celebrate with you all!


Behold, modern art! Thank you all so much that contributed their work towards the 2 year event project! Our Graphic Designer Vince has put together a beautiful collage of Buddy Sim art for everyone to enjoy! We have also provided the Google Drive link for all of the art submitted. We will be posting the art gallery as well as the Drive link to our social medias soon! Thank you so much again for not only being a part of this community but sharing your love for it through art, crafts, music and more!
