I love the artstyle, I can't wait to see where this goes! Glad you still submitted!

I like that this game uses some prehistory and even some sort of cinematics to show its story. There are some things that were confusing for me, like the player being so small. Also, when the player collides with the dino, they seem to be launched into space, which is a bit strange. 

 This game has a good grounding, and I wish you to finish it!

I really like the beginning story setup before being dropped into the main game. The artstyle is excellent and the animations were really well done. The platforming felt pretty good too. Would love to see a more complete version. Well done and props for submitting even if it's unfinished.

Thank you so much! I probably should tell people to follow if they want to see a more complete one, lol... 

I almost didn't add that beginning story setup to this jam version, but I think it added a lot more than music would've hahahah, thank you!

Thanks for reminding me! But yeah, the intro was a great addition for sure.

Developer

Ah! Thank you so much :D

This is a really interesting idea! I loved the animations, and the art style and color palette were really cool. It might be unfinished, but I think it's great you submitted it anyway, and I think it has a lot of potential! I'm not sure what type of music would fit best, but I can definitely see it working well with sort of that classic 8-bit music style. If you ever decide to update it I'd love to see where it goes :) Great work!!

Developer

Thank you kindly, this means a lot!! Well, feel free to follow if you want to see updates, I suppose!! Or is there another way?

Maybe I should make a mailing list, lol...

It isn't finished, but it definitely has potential. I really liked the cutscene at the beginning.

Developer

Thank you so much !!!

Being flinged into the air 1028349 feet up kinda annoyed me, I wish there was a down button to come down faster. I wasnt sure if I was playing it right but with polish this game would be cool. I like the art style :)

I really like your art. The dinos are perfect!

I could't really figure out how to jump/climb more than a few pixels. But those helpful creatures catapulted me right to the top of the level =)

Yes, it's not finished. But I enjoyed testing it out quite a lot. Had a smile on my face the entire time!

Keep working on it! I can definitely see potential in this.

Thank you!! I should add to read the instructions on the Itch page

To climb the vines, you just tap space multiple times.

I recommend tapping slowly/rhythmically to not hurt your fingers!

Thank you again!

Ok, thanks for the hint, will test it out!
