Video Game Menu: The Game is a comedy title built entirely around navigating video-game settings menus and experimenting with their controls. It satirises players’ often overlooked fascination with customisation options, replacing conventional challenges such as combat, platforming and puzzles with the supposedly simple pleasure of clicking through menus.

Alongside familiar settings for graphics, brightness, frame rates and v-sync, the game offers deliberately absurd choices, including screen rotation, game bloat and removing glasses. Its stranger features make buttons flee from the cursor, overlay the screen with an aircraft cockpit or shrink interface elements when approached; hidden mini-games may also appear, though the experience is presented as brief, light-hearted entertainment available on Steam.
