Game developer, SimulaM, released a new trailer of its upcoming Jesus simulator ‘I am Jesus Christ’.
While it’s easy to dismiss this project as a meme, it’s doubtless that its developers take it quite seriously, and have worked diligently on it for two years.
To celebrate that milestone, the trailer showcases the progress of the game from the first concept and character models to today, and a lot of progress has indeed been made, including playable betas.
You can check it out below:
