???? See Mars Horizon in Simfest Hobby Edition 28th March - 4th April 2022 ????
Simfest Hobby Edition 28th March - 4th April 2022 is a joint Steam & Auroch Digital event. It is a Steam festival celebrating simulation games, giving the genre opportunity to showcase all it has to offer. As there are so many games within the sim genre, the first Simfest will be the “Hobby Sim Edition”. A Hobby Sim is a simulation game that authentically simulates a hobby or job (or both!).
At Auroch Digital we've lined up a range of excellent streams and panels from games and studios doing interesting things in the simulation game space.
We are also sharing our own experience of making a job simulation game with Mars Horizon, check out the panel we are taking part in below. The panel is being looped multiple times during a 24 hour period in order to cater to different time zones. Make sure to check the schedule to find exact showing times.
???? Panel: What is a hobby Sim and why do people play them? ????
- Date 3rd - 4th April between 6pm - 6pm UK time
- From the teams working on popular hobby and job simulation games to find out how they made the games, find out how they capture that hobby or job. Where does realism belong in this genre of games? Is it more important to simulate a hobby or job accurately, or does an idealised version suit gaming better? Find out where the line between realism and idealisation is drawn in some of your favourite hobby and job sims!
