About Save the Dinos

This game was created by Greg Johnson. He used a special animation technology called DinoMorph. This technology was developed at the University of Oregon. It helped make the game's dinosaur movements look cool and realistic.

How to Play the Game

In Save the Dinos, your main goal is to protect skeletal dinosaurs. These dinosaurs are being attacked by tricky bone monkeys. The monkeys try to break the dinosaurs into pieces! To stop them, you use a special beachball cannon. You shoot beachballs at the monkeys to knock them away from the dinosaurs.

Game Features and Style

The game features cool skeletal dinosaurs that move in a realistic way. This is thanks to the physics system built into the game. Save the Dinos has a fun, cartoon-like look. It uses a 2.5D style, which means it looks like it has depth, but you play on a flat screen.

Learn While You Play

One of the best parts about Save the Dinos is that it's not just fun. It also helps you learn! As you play, the game teaches you about paleontology. Paleontology is the study of dinosaurs and ancient life. So, you get to save dinosaurs and learn cool facts at the same time!
