We Just Rocked GameOn 2024 with A Difficult Game About Driving! Hey everyone! We just got back from GameOn 2024, the biggest gaming expo in the Baltics, and it was unforgettable! We went all out to make our booth as immersive as possible by bringing a real-life bathtub car setup, complete with a wheel, to let fans experience the game like Jeff himself! GameOn is all about pushing the boundaries between virtual and physical, and we couldnt think of a better place to showcase A Difficult Game About Driving. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, tried out our setup, and shared laughs with us. It was amazing to see players react to the game's challenging climbs, hilarious falls, and all the memorable moments! Check out some of the photos from our setup below and stay tuned for more updates. If you missed GameOn, dont worrytheres plenty more in store! Keep driving (and maybe falling)!
