__long_description | In the year 2193, '"Dinosaur" becomes a popular subject again. Scientists all work for making dinosaur revive. 'Nevertheless, they still lack of a special gene. This causes the dinosaurs they cultivate are all incomplete. 'Many countries then intend to buy dinosaurian fossil at high prices in order to get the gene. 'But it seems that it's not so easy. 'No one can do anything to this problem until Dr. Crachi invents a "Time Space" machine in the year 2197.
This game is a platformer based off Sonic the Hedgehog starring a dinosaur named Chen. The game is faster paced than Somari with fewer enemies and more open level layouts throughout the game. There are 4 worlds split up into 7 levels total, with the first world being one level long. The Game Boy Color version has bosses and changes the level layouts somewhat. It is considered to be the more difficult version, mainly because of the smaller screen size.
The graphics are somewhat original and mainly inspired by Sonic the Hedgehog, with the environments being loosely based on those from that game. The color of Chen is inconsistent in the Famicom version, being pink on the title screen and in the ending cutscene and reddish-orange during gameplay. In the Game Boy Color version, he's always pink.
The graphics are almost identical in both versions, although the logo was modified slightly in the GBC version to fit the limited resolution and the colors were altered. The music is completely different in both versions. |
