Actions and Deliverables - “The Pig Simulator 1” was my Masterthesis that I completed in 2016 at the Bauhaus University in Weimar. I put a lot of time and energy in this project. And I would say that 95% of the practical work done in this project was made by me, including the conception and everything else. “The Pig Simulator 2” is an augmented and more advanced version of the masterthesis.
- Created the basic conception of the pig simulator
- Made a lot of research online about pigs in general the current state of industrial slaughtering and media related things
- Creation of Pig Simualtor by the means of realtime graphics and virtual reality technology
- Written part of my Masterthesis
Outcome - The Pig Simulator 2 is still in development, but it is mostly finished. It was also showcased on some festivals and public events. The next goal is to create an App version on Steam, so everyone can play the pig simulator at home. The itch.io version is already downloadable below.
