Love the pixelart animation! Very polished entry. The stomp caught me completely off guard and was hilarious. Good job!

Game is great! I would put that alt+enter makes it full screen in the itch io controlls.

Graphics are cute. Audio gets a little repetitive, would be nice if I could turn it down.

I think I broke it though. I got 100% power right at 0:00 and was able to keep playing.

Super fun and charming game! Love how much character you got in that little dino sprite. Overall great aesthetic both visually and audibly.

Congratulations on the game, I thought the dino grew and jumped on the planet was very cool, this idea was very good, it brought a great touch of humor to the game, if you can give your feedback in my game I will also be very happy a big hug.

Cool little game. The world was pretty sweet. I like the zoom out and zoom in. Always nice to feel I'm in a big area to roam around in. Animation and sound effects were all great. Well done!

It's fun, it's cute, and it sounds good. I really liked it.

Really nice art, animations, sound, music and premise! I would like to see more variety in gameplay but I like the idea a lot!

It's probably the engine you used, but having the option to go fullscreen / rescale the window is pretty important. My monitor is friggin' huge, so the window was tiny.

The game was fun (and about dinosaurs! Heck yeah!) and I really liked the art. Nice work!

@100th-coin Yeah we should have been more clear about that on the jam page. You can fullscreen using Alt + Enter! Ty for playing though!
