Alternate name: DINO-MIGHT
A very unpolished game, unfortunately. But due to sleeping badly last night, I have to submit the game in its current state. Still, the basic gameplay ideas are there and it's quite fun to mess around with.
Play an impatient archaeologist and use dynamite to uncover bones! Discover a new kind of dinosaur, long hidden underground and blow it up to uncover more bones! Bones!
Move with WASD, mouse click to throw dynamite, distance between the player sprite and the mouse cursor determines the force of the throw. You have 3 lives to lose by blowing yourself up or being attacked by dinosaurs.
At the moment the counter that shows the depth isn't working properly, so you can only see that once you die. Kind of a bummer, but my sleep deprived brain can't figure it out. Might take a look tomorrow, the code for it is all in, just not working quite right.
