I liked the spinning camera in the new hub and thought it would be cool to make a level rotating around a giant tree. What do you think so far? #gamedev #indiegames #platformer #madewithunity28 Aug 2026 22:43 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mu6gqlsxhs2shttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mtwq3ishec26Still hard at work adding lots of cool new stuff for the upcoming demo build. Always feels weird to spend a week making a minute's worth of cutscenes but thaaat's gamedev hahaha Can't wait to show more, back to my cave for a little while longer #gamedev #solodev #indiegames #cozygaming #platformer25 Aug 2026 21:08 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtwq3ishec26https://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mt3q5skyfs2oI'm currently working on a total revamp of the hub in my game, Dino Cleanup. The game usually has a fixed camera angle, but I thought it would be really cool if the hub was built like a wheel and the camera rotated around the central Tree. What do you think? #screenshotsaturday #indiegame #indiedev15 Aug 2026 03:28 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mt3q5skyfs2ohttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mrvtrhcqws2uDo you like Super Mario Sunshine? I’m making a cleaning 3D platformer heavily inspired by it, with a dash of Paper Mario and other GameCube / N64 era influences! It’s called Dino Cleanup, wishlist it on Steam! #indiegames #nintendo #platformer31 Jul 2026 01:51 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrvtrhcqws2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mrsfms7eyk2wAnd that marks the end of the second Dino Cleanup playtest! Thank you so so much to everyone that played, I truly appreciate it! I think this playtest went really well, I hope to release the demo sometime soon™️! If you had fun, please remember to wishlist and spread the word! #indiegames #gamedev29 Jul 2026 17:00 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrsfms7eyk2whttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mrlamttml22rI added little dinosaur villages to the main hub of my game, Dino Cleanup. At the start of the game, they're scattered across the world by the flood of goop. As you clean levels, you rescue them and they come back to the hub! #indiegames #cute #dinosaur #cozygaming #wholesomegames #platformer26 Jul 2026 20:42 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrlamttml22rhttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mrfwyafww22iAfter many requests, I finally figured out how to get the ground shadow working in the water levels in my game. Now you can see exactly where you're gonna land! You can try it out RIGHT NOW until July 29th by checking out the Dino Cleanup public playtest on Steam! #indiegames #cozygaming #platformer24 Jul 2026 18:06 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrfwyafww22ihttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mrepq34ois2hYoooo @itsmuggy.bsky.social made an awesome video playing through the entire playtest build of Dino Cleanup!

Here's a quick before and after for the aiming indicator! That white arrow was meant to be placeholder but I kept it for so long lol, farewell soldier 🫡🥲 What do you think of the new aiming graphic? #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames13 Jul 2026 20:26 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqkjor3f722chttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mqd5wxdki22a🦖💨 Gotta go fast! For the next Dino Cleanup playtest, I've added a timer for how long it takes you to fully clean levels! You can toggle showing the timer while the level is going (default is off to keep things chill). I think it'll add some fun replay value, what do you think? #indiegames #gamedev10 Jul 2026 22:08 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqd5wxdki22ahttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mqafwlacfk2mSign up for the Dino Cleanup public playtest that’s running from July 22-29!

I changed the golden dragonflies you collect for hats to be butterflies instead. I think they stand out better! I wonder how many butterflies a Steam Machine would cost? 🤔 #solodev #indiegames #cozygaming #platformer23 Jun 2026 03:43 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mowib5er3s2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3moe36buo7c2qOMG Dino Cleanup just got over 2000 wishlists on Steam! When I got laid off and focused on gamedev I could only dream that I would reach this milestone. I know I still have a lot more to go, but I'm already so blown away by your support, thank you so so much! ❤️🦖🥺 #gamedev #indiegame #cozygaming15 Jun 2026 20:00 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3moe36buo7c2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mnvanmkohk2qSo much awesome stuff shown at the Nintendo Direct! I’d love my game to be shown there one day. Do you think it would be a good fit for the Nintendo Switch? It’s called Dino Cleanup, a cleaning 3D platformer inspired by Mario Sunshine in the style of Paper Mario. #nintendo #indiegame #gamedev09 Jun 2026 22:28 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnvanmkohk2qhttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mnn4wcar6s2pIf you liked the Wholesome Direct then I think you’d love my game Dino Cleanup! It’s a non-violent cleaning platformer where you save dinosaurs that become your friends. There’s tons of hats to unlock, and accessibility options for players of all skill levels! #indiegame #wholesomegames #cozygaming06 Jun 2026 17:00 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnn4wcar6s2phttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mnl6hucyoc27@guildwars2.com came out at a formative time for me and inspired me to pursue computer science, and now game development. I'm super excited for the Guild Wars 3 announcement, the team at Arenanet are true innovators in online gaming, can't wait to hear more about it!05 Jun 2026 22:23 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnl6hucyoc27https://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mnkdvsezhs2gHi #PitchYaGame! 🦖🧼Dino Cleanup is a wholesome “clean-a-thon” platformer where you play as a cute little dinosaur with a vacuum cleaner saving a world that has been covered in toxic goop. It’s like Mario Sunshine with a vacuum and a Paper Mario art style, plus dinosaurs! Wishlist on Steam!05 Jun 2026 14:27 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnkdvsezhs2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mndsyapwf225Finally getting around to adding story segments to Dino Cleanup. Here’s an early look at the opening cutscene introducing key NPCs! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #madewithunity #lowpoly #crocotile3d #blender03 Jun 2026 00:09 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mndsyapwf225https://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mmrwp2zkns22🧪🦖 I wanted to show off some updates to the hub I'm working on. The Prof's research corner will change as you progress through the game and clean up new kinds of goop. Here you unlock training levels that give you new upgrades! #gamedev #indiegames #indiedev #platformer #cozygaming #wholesomegames26 May 2026 21:27 +0000at://did:plc:2grgrubky6iap25miidersla/app.bsky.feed.post/3mmrwp2zkns22https://bsky.app/profile/dinosire.com/post/3mmnixloc322x🎯🦖 I've been going through all of the great feedback from the Dino Cleanup playtest and a common request was more simple tutorial levels to learn mechanics. So I made this little obstacle course to learn the ropes for the vacuum blower upgrade.

Just updated the tags and it's showing up in the Upcoming tab!
