It came out after Super Mario, after Doom, after Quake, after the crash of the 80s, after cRPGs moved from just ASCII symbols to first person to isometric and back to first person now in full 3D, after point and click adventures boomed and then died, after short-lived FMV revolution. When this game came out, Steam was already an established and popular distribution platform. Weird art games such as Museum of Anything Goes, LSD Dream Simulator or Seaman came out long before it.They had the excuse that gaming was still in its infancy at that time. Devs were still trying to figure out what could be done with this booming new medium.
I wouldn't call it infancy.
