- 🚀 New Dino Art Spotlight! 🦖 - 11 September 2025
We wanted to share something special today. My son Leo (who created all the pixel dinos you see in Dino Space Station) made this awesome artwork while at high school today! 🎨✨It’s always amazing to see his creativity come through — both in the game and in his personal projects. The dinos you play with in Dino Space Station all came from his imagination and pixel art skills, and it’s so cool to see how he keeps building on that talent.Thanks again for supporting our little father-and-son project 💖

- Major Demo Update - 29 March 2025
You can now play through the first 6 levels of the game—that help guide you through some of the level mechanics. Feedback from players, and the online scoreboard was that the 3rd selectable stage, Maintenance Corridor, was too difficult. To help you survive, we’ve added the much-requested Medpacks! Healing is finally here, making the notorious Maintenance Corridor of Terror a little more forgiving (but still terrifying 👀).
- Bigger Stages - 22 March 2025
Work has been continuing on the main game after the release of the demo. Here are some samples of some of the later stages. This is one of the laser gun stages. It's called the danger room and has crates connected to chains that the player can swing on. This one is the ship's mainframe. I’m planning to add lots of mainframe-style computers and blinking lights. This stage is also filled with Oviraptors. This stage's theme reminds me of a traditional Mario Bros. game. I designed the ship's tiles to mimic an outdoor area so the Pachycephalosaurus pens would feel more like a natural habitat. There's meant to be real dirt on the floor too, so I'll need to add some dust particle effects. This stage is part one of the boss battle with the Allosaurus. I have the battle mechanics in mind but still need to code them. I hope you enjoyed the update!
