Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar

Yo dawgs. I just finished a new one, and it's an introspective take on a personal life experience I once had that I think leaves me emotionally vulnerable, while encouraging the player to think about their own feelings and how they're percieved by the people around them. It's called Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar.

—Author's dino-description on Kongregate.

Need to recapture the feeling of being a kid pretending you're in a Saturday Morning Cartoon for a few minutes? Tired of games with ambiguous titles? Just played Today I Die and need to restore your emotional equilibrium?

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAR!

Dino And Story Segregation: The Dinos do not shoot beams when they roar in cutscenes.
Dino-Homage: The gameplay, enemy design, and boss are strongly enough reminiscent of Stargunner that it's unlikely to be coincidence.
Humans Are DINO-TASTIC!
- Not sure why he said 'like us', when vaporizing a helicopter. Between that and that 'poor boy' mentioned above, It would seem to mean more that they taste good.
  - This likely falls under MST3K Mantra plus a healthy dose of Rule of Dino-Funny.
Dino-Jetpack: Dinosaurs have these on their backs.
Large Dino-Ham: Nick Sumbles obviously had an incredibly fun time doing those roars. (Wait till after the credits, it just gets hammier and hammier.)
