Fun vampire survivors like!
Thanks for playing my submission!
If only the dinosaurs had this t rex back in those times...
Very nice game. Love the concept and story
Thanks for playing.
Very good progression system. Nice ending heh
Thanks for trying out my game.
I love the story/idea of a dinsoaur throwing newspapers to others, the game feels satisfying and addictive. Would be a nice addition to have some animations but considering the time period this is amazing!
Thanks for playing. Yes, animations was planned, but cut due to time. I also wanted to add more variety to the dinosaurs, newspaper types and upgrades. Basically more content.
EXCELLENT I like the idea of how you are getting news sources and the kinds of upgrades for informing them. I think the mechanic was made well, the story is good, the art looks very nice and that overall you did a really great job on this one.
Thanks. I appreciate you trying out my game and your kind comments.
So the dinosaurs were wiped out by flying newspapers instead?? Great game!
You did it with 7 secs to spare!
Thanks for playing.
Great game! Good music, nice dinos and fun to play!
Thanks for playing my game.
Really really enjoyed the game. The premise was fun and creative on the theme, the mechanics were spot on, the power-up system felt great. Overall was an extremely fun experience :)
Thank you for playing.
Really fun game! This game is just bursting at the seams with charm and personality!
Some of my highlights:
1) The tiny T-rex arm rotating madly to throw newspapers
2) The way the upgrades were worded for example "informs harder and more frequently"
3) The overall scenario is just hilarious as others have pointed out, I like to imagine this is how it all went down 65 million years ago.
Excellent work!
Thanks for all the praise!
This theme is actually hilarious. I love the whole concept. Such a wild and fun twist on the bullet heaven genre.
Thanks for posting and playing the game. Glad you enjoyed it!
DUDE! A DINOSAUR BULLET HELL REVERSE GAME! you had all my attention haha, love it! the only thing i find to improve is that if you stay still you can also aim to all directions
Thanks for playing my silly game.
Probably the most fun game I've tried so far, great job! If only dinosaur society was totalitarian, we might still have them!
Haha. Thanks for playing!
I love this one! I think it's great that our paperboy hero is so adamant and determined to spread the news despite having a tiny little arm to throw with! I played through three times, the first I tried varying weapons, the second I tried to do all boomerangs and failed, the third I maxed out the regular newspapers, they're quite strong!
I see your list of things you wish you'd been able to add and, please, don't feel too bad about it!! You managed to make a functional and fun game in only ten days! Two thirds of the people who joined the game jam weren't able to submit a game at all, so you should be very proud of yourself! :)
Thanks for all the kind words. Yeah, I'm glad I got the game completed enough to submit. I'll definitely build more into it, just won't rush it.
i like the fun twist on informing :D
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for playing.
Very cool game. Very well made
Thanks for playing!
Very fun. I almost informed them all
Gotta inform them all.
Thanks for playing.
That was fun. I informed them so hard :D
Haha, thanks for playing.
Love the concept, and it's very replayable, well done!
Thank you for your comment and for playing.
Music kinda has a nice ring to it, also I loved the concept of the game. fun and engaging gameplay. would suggest some animations that could bring more life into the game. The gameplay has already very addictive.
I totally wanted more animations and more variety in dinosaurs. A large brachiosaurus or others like it would have been great. I might work on a post-jam edition of the game. And yeah, got lucky that I found a great song to go with the game. Thanks for playing and leaving a suggestion/comment.
Good choice of music, great artwork. Would have been nice if I could replenish willpower. Excellent solo effort for the jam!
