EnviroBear 2000

Envirobear 2000 is a car driving simulator where you play as a bear who has to gather food in preparation for hibernation. While driving through the environment, there will be other bears driving their own cars that are controlled by AI that are also trying to hoard resources. This simulation informs us on the many different ways a point-and-click game can be involved and how many different ways there are to approach environmental building. 

Lovely Weather We’re Having

Lovely Weather We’re Having is a simulator that explores the concept of people exploring the outside world. In the game, there will be changing weathers and objects that you can interact with when walking around the map. There are also NPCs that change dialogue based on weather. This is a very good example on how to create a relaxing never-ending environmental experience that is designed to be played in short bursts at a time due to its mild exploration and discovery elements.
