Nice idea! Was loling before I even opened the link. Good job!

Love it, the audio is awesome ;)

Ha, this is great. Love the atmossphere and the music, gameplay feels good to.

"Take me there." Like others said before me, cool idea, cool audio.

Great audio, fun concept! a bit too hard and frustrating, the streets could be wider.

Lovely!

Trying to stay on the road ..... I'm done, CROSS THE CITY!

That was a very nice and fun idea! My only complaint is that most of the times it is impossible to walk (I know it was the idea of the game that you are big and have to take care); there is too much sensitivity.

Anyway 4/5!

Awesome! LOL! My thought process after playing 3 or 4 rounds "hmmm... ok careful to stay on the road. Don't want to... F-it! ME SMASH! ME DESTROY!!!"

Fun little game! Controls are a bit annoying but everything else is fine. I love the music and voices as well. :D

mikesoylu 2012-04-26 19:04

I LOL'd :D

Fun little game. I'd recommend two slight changes: 1)the city might start out small so that getting around is easier at first and the city builds up over time so that it becomes harder 2) someway to control when you go into rampage mode. Overall, a very fun mechanic. Not enough destruction in the world :)

Awesome game, the voices are great, though people don't seem too fond of paying.

Scored 4015 on my best run. BUT, it ended because I was accidentally picked up a passenger while stomping on a rampage. It's definitely fun, and has that 'Oh, just one more go' feel. Oh, and the voices and music are inspired.

Anyway, it starts off quite hard (if you don't get lucky with the passenger's choice of destination at the start) but seems to get easier after you've successfully made a few runs.

The sensitivity of controls also makes it very difficult to navigate the town. Making the main streets a little wider, and as olkeencole suggested, having town's prosperity follow the dinosaur's - so as he makes money there would be a financial boom and the town begins to expand - might help to scale the difficulty.

Also, it's occasionally difficult to interpret where the arrow is pointing, and I managed to get out over the perimeter fence.

But all criticisms aside, I really enjoyed it. :)

Great game. My only problem is that the game sometimes freeze and becomes unplayable (dino running without any key pressed) but that's probably m'y computer/internet connection fault.

tifu 2012-05-05 12:23

Great idea, hilarious! The arrow is incredibly hard to read though. Would be pretty great if that was more readable.

kibertoad 2012-05-05 17:00

Idea is great, however due to the execution is not too fun to play: city streets are so tiny you can barely navigate them even if you are not particularly in a hurry, and if you are... Good luck to you, then. And if you merely want to unleash mayhem on city - you can't do that either, as game will come to end rather quick. This game begs for some post-LD attention.

mrbarnslig 2012-05-05 18:42

Ha! This made me laugh, nice job. It was pretty hard though, unfortunate that the most fun thing (knocking over buildings) is the thing you AREN'T allowed to do. But it was fun and had a great presentation. Thanks for making it!

thotep 2012-05-10 13:18

Nice idea and execution, it's a fun game!

robcozzens 2012-05-11 23:26

Those buildings are way too fragile! Cool idea though... it could be tweaked into something great!

frib 2012-05-13 21:01

lots of fun. Quite hard to find the sweet spot on roads, but rampage makes up for it
