Saw that this game was popular, and clearly for good reason! Very fun and cute. I loved that I could change my pterodactyl color, and I'm proud to say that, at the moment of writing this, I'm #19 on the leaderboard :P
Thanks so much, and grats, haha! Really liked your game as well :)
Nice game. Dinossaurs and leaderboard. What could go wrong?
Fun game! Super satisfying when you get a long combo, power ups are a nice addition. Great work :)
Nice Funny game that fits the theme. Good Job!
Was that a surprice. Awesome game. We had a lot of fun playing it. The deflecting mechanic feels realy awesome. Awesome work!
Great game! I didn’t make the top 20, but it’s addictive so one day, I’ll be there. It gets hard a little fast. I really liked having options for the power ups. Well done.
Really awesome concept great work !
I liked the combo system, it quickly becomes hard to protect the dino though
Really interested concept and deceptevly simple! Enjoyed it a lot ! Great job!
Thank you all for playing our game and for the lovely comments, we've been floored by the response! We are doing our best to play all of your games, there have been so many cool ones this jam.
this is a cool one, good job
Very cool concept! Loved the upgrades XD
Oh my gosh, this is so easy and so cool! I was hooked for a long time. It's so cool!
Such as simple but very fun gameplay loop! Also love how simple and effective the artstyle is. The BGM is also a banger. And there is also a Leaderboard! Def the winner of this jam (if it was a competition)
Aww, thank you!! I composed the song in A minor and had the meteors make marimba tones in the A minor chord so that the sounds would fit in with the music. The art was mostly made in Blender, rendering out 3D models (made during the jam) in a toon-shaded style with outlines to produce 2D art. Sometimes some touch-up was done after in Gimp.
The leaderboard, my buddy toiled away at for two days straight, he was doggedly determined to get it up and running. Upgrades didn't even exist in the game until the final 18 hours, during which the power went out at one point. Suffice to say, the final build was filled with a lot of stress XD
Thanks so much for your kind words, and thanks for playing!
So that was those sounds are, what a great detail! I also honestly would not have thought that the 2D assets were from 3D renders. They def turned out well! The Leaderboard were def the cherry on top!
Simple but very good concept. Effective. I had a good moment playing your game!
A really fantastic idea. It's a lot of fun! And it gets really challenging over time. One of the best games of the jam so far, in my opinion. I was also very excited about the leaderboard. It's amazing how polished the game is, and all that in such a short time. Keep up the good work!
Aww, that's kind of you to say! We decided early on that we wanted to take some of the simplest gameplay we could think of and just iterate/polish over it again and again. A lot of late nights and a particularly stressful final 24 hours, haha!
Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for playing!
Amazing! Crikey - almost gave you 5/5 for every category!
Wow, thanks so much!! Really glad you enjoyed it!
elegant, clever and polished! I had lots of fun, even though I died early on. The 'pick one' upgrade per wave works really well and keeps things fresh for the player. Very satisfying watching the meteors bounce around.
well done!
One of the best games I played so far this game jam. Really cool art and idea. Love the leaderboard.
Very fun game! I like your interpretation of the theme. I'm always impressed by games that include leaderboards. Played multiple times to get my name on there.
