I actually played the game with no internet connection to have the full experience, and it worked great !
You should both be so proud of yourself. Incredible work!
The only thing I don't like about this game is that I have seen it before. Neat entry.
i killed so many poor geckos :c
Banger gameplay, i would love to see this running in the browser instead of the default dinosaur game. Probably could be achieved somehow with browser scripts.
I cannot believe you made a whole cutscene for this game! Amazing! really creative idea too. love it
Really fun intro. cool idea, had fun playing it.
I'm not quite into the gameplay but the art and the way to scale is simply AMAZING, making it an inspiring masterpiece for me. I learnt a lot from this. Thank you so much!
What a quirky and enjoyable game! Working in 2 dimensions sure is challenging :) Incredible job
Fun and creative idea. I really like the theme and love the idea of using the character and it's shadow simultaneously. Thanks for making this.
