A virtual fair for independent games
Three times a year, Valve focuses on new games and live developer streams with the Steam Game Preview for a week. Until March 3 at 7:00 p.m., “hundreds” games have not yet been released on Steam as part of the free demo versions.
These are mostly upcoming indie projects and games from small development teams; Triple-A productions generally do not participate in the campaign. With genres, the Steam game preview covers a wide range: from action RPGs to world strategy to Point’n’click-Adventures, everything is included. Valve sees the event as an online alternative for gaming measurement, where visitors can play on titles that are far from available, and emphasizes: Unlike the hectic trial in the hustle and bustle, the games can be found during the next firmly at the next one.
A first hint of interesting games is delivered on the campaign start page in the Steam store, a “discovery list” assembled by valve algorithmically in the participating games with the available demo version, which have been selected, taking into account the title of a Steam account that has been played.
If you want to recommend specific games with a demo version or ongoing discounts, you can do so in the comments. Ratings or experiences about your favorites are also welcome – which games are well received by you and which demo should not be left out?
Live developer streams answer questions
What is also the case when participating in an on-site fair: the communicative exchange with the developers. In this regard, Valve refers to the numerous live streams as part of the Steam Next festival, in which game developers play their own titles and explain, give an overview of the development and answer questions from the audience.
