I am always very impressed when people manage to use PICO-8 to make games for Trijam. For 3 hours this is incredibly polished! I really like the references to Mario and how the big "sacrifice" is the final hurdle for the game. A cute and simple game. Good job!

I reused code and sprites from past projects, which helped. Thanks!

Really well polished platformer with a classic theme that is totally not inspired by a small game! 

I loved the animation for the dinosaur and the overall visual feel to this game! It feels really smooth to play. However, I couldn't get past the final jump... I used both Jump and dismount but still didn't work. Thanks for any suggestions/solutions !(I'm bad at playing games haha)

I don't know how does PICO-8 handle music, but a background music could be a nice addition!

Great job!

The more enemies the dino eats, the faster it runs and the higher it jumps. That may help.

I'm very much not a music person, so I figured it was better to have none than something annoying. I did make all the sfx myself this time tho.
