MORE ABOUT THE GAME

Humans had the silly idea of bringing dinosaurs back to life, and ever since, relationships between the two species have been strained. You were created in a laboratory to become the only dinosaur cop. Every day, you ask yourself: are you making the world better for your dino peers, or are you just a tool of human propaganda? The meaty case you'll face today might help you answer your most profound existential dilemma.

Hi!

I am a member of the French game localization collective Locasaurus, which is a collective of professional English and Japanese to French translators who are specializing in video games. We work closely with indie developers to bring their titles to a broader audience through a high quality localization. We're a creative and dynamic team who loves nothing more than games and language, and we really hope we can cooperate with you!

As you may conclude with our name, we are fans of dinos! So, our pack of rawrsome dinos would be thrilled to translate it into French, if you are interested. 

We are here to answer any questions you may have about our process, so feel free to write to us anytime!

I played this game today on a livestream on the recommendation of a friend and I have to be completely honest...

I need the full game.

It combines two of my favourite things: Lizards(The fossil kind in particular), and Sherlock Holmes.

From as little as the demo gives (a full in-game day it seems) it was more than enough to give me insight into what to expect. The humour, the mechanics, and the overall feel of the game is just great. There are a few typos and I did run into an issue where dialogue from previous dialogue prompts triggered at the end of conversations (hard to explain but you can see it in the stream), but aside from that it was very clean and nothing that was game breaking or bothersome. One thing I would like to see is having a way to access the magnifying glass via an input to bypass having to go into the inventory for it each time. Overall, I had a ton of fun and wishlisted it on steam right away.

VERY excited for the full release. Great job! P.S. API-BLOP all the way

Stream segment of my playthrough here

Thanks a lot for streaming the demo! We're already working on fixing the typos and the weird dialogue order (which happens when there are no more questions to ask a character). I'll also be thinking about a shortcut to equip objects. Thanks for your feedback, I enjoyed watching the stream!

Hey there, trying to run the demo but first for me and a friend it throws up a missing UnityPlayer.DLL, then if you add one into the folder it throws up a "Failed to load mono" error, something about the MonoBleedingEdge folder it seems. Not sure if our systems are the issue, but thought I'd bring it to your attention :) Can't wait to play the demo when I can! <3

Thank you for pointing it out! It seems the folder was missing something in the last build! Download the new version (version 11) and it should work. Let me know if it doesn't. sorry about that!
