🌳🦕 Almost done reworking a big level for the upcoming Steam demo of my game, Dino Cleanup. 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 #madewithunity

Dinosire @dinosire.com · 25/08/2026

Still 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 #platformer

Dinosire @dinosire.com · 15/08/2026

I'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 #indiedev

Dinosire @dinosire.com · 31/07/2026

Do 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 #platformer

I 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 #platformer

Dinosire @dinosire.com · 24/07/2026

After 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!

I've been hard at work cleaning things up for the playtest next week. Here's a quick before and after for the aiming indicator!

Dinosire @dinosire.com · 10/07/2026

🦖💨 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 #gamedev

So 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 #gamedev

If 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 #cozygaming

Hi #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!
