Nice concept!
Felt like a terrible every time I pressed restart. Great job! Game was really well made, loved the graphics and the vibes!
This is incredibly creative, and the intro animation is chef's kiss. Love the parallelism of 2D and 3D and how it perfectly matches the theme. Superb execution and great artwork!
Yup. This is the one. Perfect game, gg.
Genius concept, well done!
really fun game !
Such a cute gecko! Really enjoyed this one. Nice Job!
Played for a little bit but, I had fun right away, I thought it was clever, and it looked appealing...
So I rated it 5/5/5 and moved on...
Srsly, well done 👍
Really enjoyed playing this, shame I need internet connection to play it 🤣
Amazing design!
Hey, great and funny game!! We spend a long time playing it at home. Congratulations! Can we include it as one of the best games in the jam in a video in our youtube channnel?
Hey! We’re so glad you’re enjoying our game! Feel free to include it in your video—we’d be thrilled! We’d love to watch it too! Could you let us know where to find it once it’s up? :)
Really fun twist on the chrome dino game
This game is actually so incredibly good. The concept is original and extremely clever and very well done. The art is also amazing. The fact that there's a story to this game is amazing. This game is actually just so good.
clever and funny game, but i did kinda get jumpscared at the start for some reason possibly starts a bit too loud
didn't quite enjoy it tho, that mostly being the original dino game's fault, the jumps aren't super intuitive
Awesome concept ! It seems simple but it's really effective and keeps you on edge, it's really harder than it seems to keep your eyes on both planes
Where Does Google Get All These Geckos?
Do They Have A Farm?
Genius implementation of theme! Feels really polished too.
Very creative game concept! I laughed pretty hard at the onset, and the concept of bringing the adversity you face in the game into the 3rd dimension /alongside/ the 2nd dimension was very clever. Well executed, well designed, well earned!
This game's wild! Great art, music, nice interpretation of the theme, definitely going in the top 20!
Nice concept with Geckos, now I feel awful... killed too much of them
But anyway, I like the idea of splitting zones of player's concentration!
