"Work At Height VR Training" lacks the basic mechanics that make something a game. This is just an application that provides absolutely unqualified and uncertified working at heights training material. Following the advice of this software and working at heights may put you or others at risk. Under no circumstances should this paygated training software be used as a substitute for certified safety training from qualified instructors. To clarify why this isn't a game in more precise terms, a "game loop" is the core cycle of interaction and feedback between a player and the game itself. Tetris, for example, has a game loop where a random block appears, the gamer interacts with the block to position it, and then the game decides if that finishes a row or not, increases the players score if any rows were completed, then gives the gamer another block to position. Counter-Strike has a game loop where a player seeks another player, tests their skill against that player by shooting them or being shot, the computer rewards the player if they win, and then if the player survives, they repeat that loop. This software has no such loop and no interactive gameplay/feedback. It isn't a game and it cannot be "played" in any traditional sense. Launching software applications in the "Games" category on Steam can be seen as misleading. Many amateur "developers" don't seem to understand the difference between a software app and a game (this should be obvious)! We should at least assume this is ignorance over malice, but it's still a non-game published in the game section. Here's a link for the process to publish non-game software on Steam: [url=https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithPublishing?issueid=925]Steam Developer Help With Software Publishing[/url] It is a shame the developer failed to follow the correct process, as we now have this garbage software app taking up space in the games section of the store where it doesn't belong. When developers publish things that obviously are not games as if they are games, it pollutes the marketplace and makes it harder to find real, genuinely made games from game developers who did the right thing. This kind of store pollution makes it harder for gamers to find those genuinely games. It's bad for everyone. There are no gameplay loops in this software, no "gameplay", no meaningful game like interaction. It's a software application and as such has no merits as a video game for gamers. Because of this, I cannot recommend this non-game software as a game to gamers. Despite having no up-front cost, this failed to appeal to the 130 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB shows this peaked at [b]only 6 concurrent users[/b]... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Do not put your life at risk or the lives of others by following the flawed guidance provided by this harmful software.
