Wow very hectic! I like the weapon options cool

Really funny game. I think the bullets could be bigger to get better visual effect.

I think everyone can agree that dinosaurs are pretty cool. :)

Great job! Really liked the idea and very fun to play. Good graphics too!

OK, this was hilarious! I enjoyed my dino-hoverboarding session immensely. You caught the theme spot on, only one powerup :D My favorite was the shield because I lasted longerst with it. The lasers could have been bigger though.

As a dinosaur fan I loved the rawr! Nice dinosaur! Too easy to die.

mrvanderpants 2013-12-16 08:04

OMG is that a laser dino? Yes it is a laser dino! This game is great

catonmars 2013-12-16 08:04

Graphics are awesome! But I found that the multi-shot bullet is quite hard to recognize.

caranha 2013-12-16 08:54

Thanks everyone for the comments! A lot of people are asking for the lasers to be bigger and more visible. That is a great idea, I will make sure to put it on the next version of the game :-)

Mega Beeeeam! The contrast of the game is bad for bullet recognizing, otherwise fun little game.

caranha 2013-12-16 09:11

Hemuuuli: Thanks, you're right. I will work on the background colors too!

Fun game, had a bit trouble seeing the enemy bullets as they are a bit small.

This is a funny game. :) I liked so much the graphics and sound.

loxo 2013-12-16 19:39

I like the nice graphics, the great sound effects, especially the rawr, and the options in the game menu. Your game has everything that's needed, except a boss fight. Great game!

Nice one. And full of doubleclick-awesomeness :D

I also think that the bullets should be bigger.

rincewind_cz 2013-12-17 19:39

Most of the time I got killed was because enemy bullets are not easily visible. Making them bigger or using different distinct color would be really helpful. Music and gameplay are ok though.

jacques_le_lezard 2013-12-17 20:27

Haha funny, I made a game with dinosaure too but not the same way ^^

blazingfanfish 2013-12-18 03:15

i can't see the bullet

ras-lyon 2013-12-18 11:42

Retro goodness! I dominated with the multi-shot! I wish that enemy bullets were easier to see. When I start to think of constructive criticisms, I have to remember one guy did all of it!! Then it's super impressive!

tijmentio 2013-12-18 13:04

Hahaha, so much fun man. pew pew pew

tijmentio 2013-12-18 13:04

btw the concept art I saw on Twitter was SICK

hadesfury 2013-12-19 21:21

Fun stuff!
Those grey bullets are hard to you see against the background...

ganbaregames 2013-12-19 23:40

The dinosaur's hitbox is big as hell.

mrjordan 2013-12-22 23:14

SICK music! A shocking number of people didn't have any music, so a groove this fine was very welcome.

Fun to play too...but the MUSIC. :)

goerp 2013-12-29 09:35

That was a nice game. Playing easy indeed was a bit too easy.
I like the dinosaur roar at the beginning.
Nice graphics too.
I played on Android and your finger sometimes gets in your view. Good thing you changed that.

Hola, we finally found some time to make a Linux build, if you want to try it out, you're welcome !

bvanschooten 2014-01-05 10:00

The game works on Linux. Cute game! The mega beam was the easiest, because you need so many shots to kill most enemies with the other weapons. The controls are jittery, the dinosaur wouldn't always stay in one place or go where I wanted.

gfm 2014-01-06 02:13

RAWR!
Really fun game! It's a shooter with a rocket-hoverboard-riding dinosaur... how wouldn't it be? :)

It's kinda difficult to see the bullet shoot horizontally by the ground units.

Also, why would anyone want a weapon besides the MEGA BEAM? XD
(Just kidding, nice weapons! But my favorite will always be the gigantic laser!!)
