Dinsun Review
Saturn Slalom is the digital equivalent of plain oatmeal. It’s functional, it does exactly what it says on the tin, but it has no flavor. You fly forward, you move left and right to avoid rocks. That's it. We’ve been playing this exact game since the late 70s.
While the space background is fine, there’s no sense of progression or discovery. You don't find cool power-ups, you don't fight bosses, you just... slalom. In a world with thousands of high-quality indie games, why would anyone settle for this? It’s not offensive, it’s just pointless. It feels like a template project that someone forgot to add the actual game to.
