WHAT IS?

the Chrome's Dino?

The Dinosaur Game (also known as the Chrome Dino)is a browser game developed by Google and built into the Google Chrome web browser. The player guides a pixel art T-rex across a side scrolling landscape, avoiding obstacles to achieve a higher score. The game was created by members of the Chrome UX team in 2014. 

When a user attempts to navigate to a web page on Google Chrome while being offline, the browser notifies the user that they are not connected to the Internet, with an illustration of a pixelated Tyrannosaurus rex shown on the page.

The game can then be launched either by pressing space or ↑ on desktop, or by tapping the dinosaur on Android or IOS mobile devices. Additionally, the game can be accessed by inputting chrome://dino or chrome://network-error/-106 into the Omnibox.

The game was created by members of the Chrome UX team in 2014, which consisted of Sebastien Gabriel, Alan Bettes, and Edward Jung.Gabriel designed the player character, named the "Lonely T-Rex". During development, the game was given the codename "Project Bolan", in reference to Marc Bolan, the lead singer of the T. Rex band. The developers chose the dinosaur theme as a reference to the game's function, a joke that not having an internet connection is equivalent to living in the "prehistoric ages". The game was released in September 2014; initially, it did not work on older devices, so the code was updated and re-released in December of the same year. The pteranodons were added as obstacles with a browser update in 2015.

In September 2018, an Easter egg was added to the game in celebration of Chrome's 10th birthday and the game's fourth birthday, with a birthday cake appearing in the desert and a birthday hat appearing on the Lonely T-Rex if the cake is "eaten". In November of the same year, Google introduced a feature to save the player's high score. The game's source code is available on the Chromium site.

Our goal was to change this game a bit for better graphics and apply its mechanics differently.

Let's make do this game to better...
