Presenting...

Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar!

Is this truly the greatest shmup ever conceived?

Pretty awesome, but the roar sound effect needs to be better.

I like it, it's like hearing an actual recording from a real dinosaur.

I was disappointed at the fact that there was only 1 level. Quite fun nonetheless.

The roar encore after the credits was fucking hilarious.

Played it again. Can't stop being addicted to the roar. If only it were a bit more difficult, and a bit more... danmaku, especially during the boss

Well the hitbox is anyway gigantic, so there.
I need a sequel.
We need a sequel.
I'll vote it as the 25th on my 25 best shmups ever this year

Great effort!

But someone needs to tell them:.............

mouse controlled shmups are just bad mkay.

oh wow, yet another lifebar based flash euroshmup.

But wait! this one has another great feature, discharging underpowered main (and only) weapon.

not my cup of tea I guess.

Have fun with failure!

No, srsly. It doesn't even have the horrible horrible ingame shop you americanadians laugh upon every time.

The lifebar did suck [and, if the hitbox was slightly smaller, it'd be useless], but the roar discharge seemed like it didn't hamper you too much, and it gave you a reason to have a fire button.
And, like I said in the [more descriptive titled, but locked thread], this would be totally awesome if it had more levels.

I would argue that my title was more descriptive, actually

Also, anyone complaining about the gameplay in "Robot Dinosaurs that Shoot Beams when they Roar!" does not understand what makes it awesome.

then call the thread best flash game ever conceived and put it in offtopic section. ;P

(because the "shmup" part of that game is far from the best)

Surely if it's the best Flash game ever, it's also the best Flash shmup ever, by default?

The roar is the best part of the game.
