The 3D action platformer features a unique artist mode that allows players to dig holes, build bridges, and creatively experiment as they journey towards the planet's core. The deformation technology was so impressive that it was developed into a dedicated artist mode, reminiscent of Mario Paint, where players layer materials and add color. Users have recreated nostalgic art from Donkey Kong's past and meme content. The artist mode enhances the game experience, possibly as a precursor to future creative 3D tools from Nintendo.
The DK artist mode is reminiscent of the Super Mario 64 start screen that let you pull and stretch the plumber's face to show off the smooth movement of the new system's first analog stick controller.
Many paid homage to Donkey Kong's previous look and style from the Rare days and CGI-animated cartoon. Others have used Nintendo's tools to recreate the most deranged memes of the year, like bloated JD Vance complete with his own DK rap intro lyrics.
