  • The idea behind this game is pretty fun. Taking the dinosaur from the classic Chrome "No Internet” game and giving it a job as an internet technician just to escape the endless cactus running nightmare is a pretty creative concept. The gameplay is straightforward: you click on the six houses, fix problem, and try to keep your Offline Meter from filling up. Then you get thrown into the Dino World, where you have to jump and dodge obstacles. Personally, I found both parts pretty difficult, especially the Dino World section, and it ended up feeling more frustrating than fun for me. Overall, I think the concept is creative and there are some cool ideas here, but the gameplay wasn't really for me. The difficulty in particular made it hard for me to enjoy as much as I wanted to. Still, good job on the idea and best of luck with the next one!
  • Conceptually quite cool and fairly rich mechanically for a game jam submission. It is fairly difficult but in its essence there's definitely a lot of room for this game to grow. All the bars seem to reach 0 almost at the same time at the start which I didn't like as much but otherwise a solid game
  • The premise I like. However the rest of it goes by way too fast to make any sense. I can't read that fast and I was on easy. Do I really have to constantly fix every house and manage all of their meters at the same time. So stressful. At least in easy mode, the timers should be much slower I think. In the running section the colliders should be a bit more forgiving too. Since you are merging two genres, I think you should be careful in designing each so the game doesn't become two times harder. Otherwise I conceptually like the face a dino is going around doing customer service.
  • This was super unique, and a really fun concept. But the execution could be improved. It was alot difficult (even on easy difficulty), maybe a skill issue lol. With the dino game, the dino collider was too big, and it was unsatisfying. Overall, the concept is great, and the looming threat of trying to survive the dino game is super fun! Maybe just slow down the timer on easier difficulties.
  • Its a twist and a mixed genre where I couldn't understand much... Why is there such a big delay when i click a house, why does sometimes even if i try to fix it doesn't get fixed etc etc.
  • This was an interesting game! Tho the minigame was difficult as I couldn't even pass the 1st obstacle :p But the idea of the game is good. One thing, the delay between clicking the house was annoying. But overall pretty decent game!
  • What you can improve is that you can make the 3 buttons appear as fast as the player clicks on it because for me it appeared like 0.7 seconds later so it was hard to like play very fast

A fun multi-tasking game. It wasn't full-screen for me, so I had to really bring my face in to read the text. Reminds me of warioware, for no reason in particular.

haha Thanks for the feedback

Probably the only original concept! Looks so cool!

Thanks!

Ok this is good game. But one thing i would like to suggest you to remove full screen button in itch.io game settings, instead use unity default button. The current button does not maximize the screen.

Thanks! noted.
