Well, I’m just spoil a few things about my game, It takes place in prehistoric _ **EARTH** _ where you are _ **BOUND** _ to fight some super strong dinosaurs You’re gonna have to _ **SMASH!!!** _ your way to survive.

If you get my drift 😉

(If you know you know.)

@richard, I have an important question. Are there copyright rules once it comes to the game jam? Because my game is _SEVERELY_ based off the Dinosaur Game. Here is the Easter Egg!
