Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. OCO is a game for people who think most games are too loud. It’s stripped down to the bone—one button, circles, and colors. I can appreciate the efficiency. The way the sound syncs with your jumps is well-executed, and some of the later puzzles actually require a bit of brainpower. It's a 'zen' game, which is usually code for 'boring,' but OCO keeps the pressure on with move-count limits.
My gripe is that it feels more like an app than a game. There's no weight to anything. You jump, you loop, you finish. The community levels are a nice touch, but quality varies wildly. It's great for five minutes, but I find my mind wandering after ten. It lacks a hook that makes me want to come back for anything other than a quick distraction. Clean, but sterile.
