    The graphics feature a simple and cartoonish art style that effectively highlights the dinosaurs and map, providing clarity for players. While some users express a desire for more graphical options, the overall consensus is that the art style is well-suited to the game's design and does not require extensive customization.

    • “The art style is cartoonish and simple, making the dinosaurs and map clear.”
    • “I really like this game: it has good gameplay, a great art style, and is very clear.”
    • “Could be more graphical options (e.g. more resolution options), but the simple cartoonish art style doesn't need loads of options for this.”

    The gameplay is engaging, particularly in the archaeologist mode where players collect bones from defeated dinosaurs to power a unique ultimate ability. This mechanic adds a fun layer to the experience without being overwhelming, contributing to an overall positive impression of the game's design and clarity.

    • “Gameplay: I had fun playing Archaeologist mode where you pick up bones from dinosaurs you defeat to charge up your 'ultimate' - a powerful single-use ability that comes from a large shotgun blast of bones to a dinosaur friend that kills enemy dinosaurs for a short period.”
    • “Conclusion: I really like this game; it has good gameplay, art style, and is very clear.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is considered basic yet effective, providing enough entertainment to keep players engaged for many hours.

    • “A rather basic game, but I think it's funny and I spent a lot of hours on it.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game lacks a significant narrative, focusing instead on delivering an intense bullet-hell experience without a structured story.

    • “There's no story to speak of, just pure bullet-hell goodness.”
    • “The narrative feels disjointed and lacks any real depth.”
    • “Character development is minimal, making it hard to care about their journeys.”
  • music
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received positive feedback, with users particularly enjoying the tracks, especially the one featured in the trailer, which many feel would have been a great choice for the game's overall soundtrack.

    • “The music is nice; I quite like the tracks, particularly the one in the trailer video. I would probably have chosen that one for it too if I had to.”
