We’re looking for new authors for The Sims and Life Sim Games coverage!
The Sims Community website platform is looking for new creative talent to join the freelance opportunity of creating written content for The Sims and Life Simulation video games genre.
In case you haven’t noticed already, we’ve been working behind the scenes on improving the layout and updating the coding infrastructure in the backend. We didn’t want to keep you updated on any announcements about the template switch as we wanted to soft launch it and squash the initial bugs before moving onto future projects. One of the projects that I’m very excited about is expanding article and news coverage beyond to other game franchises. Including Paralives, InZOI and now Tomodachi Life 2 from Nintendo. We want to create a seamless experience of news, updates and original content for multiple Life Simulation Games franchises. As we’ve always done since the launch of this website, but this time with proper sectioning!
This is why we’re announcing a new subcategory on Sims Community called Life Sim Games. This section will house (pun intended) all the general news and information about all the Life Sim games that aren’t The Sims.
We want you to be in control of your news feed on your favorite life simulation genre games, and this solution is currently in development along with other site updates and maintenance for Sims Community.
There are going to be opportunities in the very near future to vote on which features you’d prefer to see added on this site and suggest your own feedback as we shape the website development. But for now, let’s talk about creating content for The Sims and Life Sim Games!
