I (Fabien or Flap) have been fascinated with the contagion mecanism in games since a long time. The idea of mixing the memory and contagion suddenly came up, and felt natural : there is a lot of guessing too when trying to contain an epidemic.
When I proposed the idea to Rature, he liked it, and we decided to make a game together.
Later, while witnessing the early days of the epimic unfolding, such as Wuhan quarantine, the prejudices against chinese-looking and the #IamNotAVirus hashtag, or the iconic death of Li Wenliang... We realized that there was a story to be told.
