The game also has support for full-screen mode, which also works with a mouse. To do this, follow the link in the Content section. Mini Doge warned that the first boot would take about a minute. 
To port the project, the developer used “inscription” technology; these are tokens based on the DRC-20 standard. When the client is deployed, all data is pulled directly from the <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/Dogecoin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dogecoin</a> blockchain.

The function of the Inscriptions has been repeatedly criticized. In particular, the US National Vulnerability Database (NVD) <a href="https://crypto.news/u-s-agency-identified-bitcoin-inscriptions-as-cybersecurity-risk/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">has flagged</a> the “inscriptions” created in the <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/Ordinals/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ordinals</a> protocol as a cybersecurity threat to the <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin</a> network. According to the warning, in some versions of Bitcoin Core and Bitcoin Knots, BRC-20 can bypass restrictions on the amount of data transferred through a transaction by disguising it as code. Being listed as an NVD means a cybersecurity vulnerability has been studied, cataloged, and deemed necessary for public attention.
