Dinsun Review
I don't understand the fascination with these 'meme games.' You take a spinning cat that was mildly amusing on Twitter for a week and build a paper-thin runner around it. There is no craft here, no design philosophy beyond 'look at the cat you recognize.' It’s the digital equivalent of a novelty keychain—useless, cheap, and destined for the trash heap within 48 hours.
The mechanics are floaty and the hitboxes are questionable at best. It relies entirely on the player's irony-poisoned sense of humor to forgive its technical shortcomings. As a gamer who grew up when you had to actually design levels and mechanics to get noticed, this feels like an insult to the medium. It's not 'forever'; it’s barely for now.
