SkyFyre: Art?

Having just played SkyFyre on newgrounds.com, I realized that clearly not all video games are art. Yes the game was very fun and addicting, I realized that in order to be art it a game can't just be a game. Substance is required. By substance I mean story, a creative thought or idea, visual appeal, or something in which it's artistic value can be measured.

In result, the game was fun, but fun does not equal art.
