Distancing

This game gives me so much PTSD.

"Distancing" is a short, pointless and rather painful (and not just because it's badly made) minigame about social distancing... and given how dated this game already is, some explanation. During the C19 crisis that started last decade, one aspect of the fight against the disease was enforcing "social distancing", which is to say people weren't supposed to get close to other people, to reduce the risk of disease transmission. A lot of people would like social distancing to come back despite the pandemic being, well, "managed" now. I don't blame them. Anyway with that background, this is a simple 10-15 minute arcade game where you try and fail to stay away from other people much like other people try to stay away from the developer's products. The quality is extremely bad and the premise is no longer relevant. The game features really lacklustre 2D visuals (does the developer not know 3D graphics became mainstream in the mid-1990s?). Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs and the latest 3D graphics cards to play 2D games. Even mobile phones and game consoles can do 3D graphics now. There's no excuse. This is "free" enough, at least you won't be expected to spend any more money after you download this, but just because something is free doesn't mean it's good. Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 14 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Not this time. This isn't worth downloading. While this won't cost you any money, you get what you pay for, and sometimes, even when the game is free, it's still not enough.
