Such an odd demo, in the best possible way. Such a cool concept and I love the odd retro PC graphics. Certainly a unique entry.

That was quite the experience. Had some fun with it, but I don't see a theme. Would also see more dinosaurs model, not only single scene - it got very repetitive on a second time.

I love the art in this, so satisfying to destroy the dinos.
I figure the theme is in that dinos extinction is delayable but not inevitable something like that, is that it?

ME :heart: DESTROY

An alternative to the Jenga-esque gameplay you're suggesting is to try and knock the dinosaurs' legs out as fast as possible and watch them topple over. Repeat ad infinitum. I'm sure this is how the dinosaurs went extinct.

This one's hard to rate. It's undeniably fun, and clever, and awesome, but it's also kind of on the edge of what I would consider a game. No score, no hit points, no winners, no losers, just some awesomely authentic roadside dinosaurs to slowly pick apart and see what lies within. It's the sort of thing that dares the player to make their own fun, and I'm not sure the Jenga game is the best way to do that. I found it to be more fun to knock them down as quickly as possible! Maybe you could hide something inside a dinosaur and the winner is whoever finds it first? Honestly, when I saw the screenshot and the title, I thought I'd be driving around and smashing through them, which sounds like a blast.

This is one of the most memorable entries this LD. It'll definitely stick with me. Good job.

RAWR!
Nice little clicker game to release stress. Agree with the above its an interactive experience not necessarily a game but the art style is unique and strange and overall was immediate click-tastic fun. Nice jammin'!
