Our take on SOMOS
The focus on side-switching movement keeps the design concentrated, but limits the interaction space to a compact two-sided screen. Rule-changing challenges and procedural obstacles provide variation, while the core action remains centered on avoiding or destroying objects through movement.
What is SOMOS?
SOMOS is an action-arcade game built around movement and minimalist visuals.
The avatar switches between the two sides of the screen to avoid or destroy procedurally generated obstacles. Interacting with an object on the avatar's current side forces a move to the opposite side, creating fast puzzle-solving sequences. The game includes challenges that alter its rules. Completing them unlocks color palettes for Endless mode, which is competitive, and Relaxation mode. SOMOS is made for PC and mobile and is described as suitable for both advanced and casual gamers.
