As soon as I launched the game the ARTE logo caught my eye, instantly reminding me of the TV channel and the early music videos I loved watching on YouTube. However, this game didn’t meet my expectations. It’s a simple, plain and unpolished game where you control two chained balls ":" to move from the left side of the map to the right. The gameplay feels dry, with little excitement beyond occasional jumps. While the backgrounds offer historical facts and figures, they lack sufficient context. I’m having trouble understanding the purpose or the intention behind this game. I believe it’s important for a company to focus on its strengths. ARTE excels in delivering art, culture, and music content through its channel, but game publishing seems like an unfamiliar business realm for them. I’d suggest sticking to their established expertise. [u] [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43342176-Why-Not-Games/#browse] My curator page[/url][/u]
