The Homecoming Exhibition

⠀

The Homecoming Exhibition is a free Art gallery, of groundbreaking work of Nako Baev. Worked on Win 11, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. Made with Unreal 5 engine. Use ESC key then Tab key to get to Quit program or settings. It is going to require more power to play, so have a better computer hardware. Maybe try this, if you like Art.

Unfortunately, while it looks interesting and I would like to enjoy it, it feels laggy and I can't quit the game or even access the settings menu without getting a graphics card error that crashes my computer.

For the price of free I can't complain. It's a small art exhibit made in a virtual medium. Makes me want to do something similar with my work!

The Homecoming Exhibition is not a game. Games contain meaningful gamelike interaction and game loops, which are absent in this software.

That's right.. the answer is "Steam Direct". They pay $100 USD and dump their rejected high school art class dropout trash onto Steam, in the hopes someone will get confused and think it's a game and accidentally see the aforementioned trash. For those unfamiliar with what actually makes something a game, a "game loop" describes the interaction and feedback a gamer has when playing a game. 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…

A very immersive and high quality experience overall, i like it
