Senmat Studios discusses games as art

Video games can be an avenue for artistic expression just as any other medium can. The medium doesn’t determine whether something is or isn’t art, in my opinion. One way of describing art could be any abstract expression of a person’s thoughts, feelings, or so on. Whether they choose to do this through dance, music, writing, drawing, sculpture, photography, designing games, etc., is not important in that sense. - Daniel Coleman, Co-owner, director, artist, manager, and level designer at Semnat Studios
