Some people say we should have called the game Dinodetective and we didn't, because Dinocop is a cop, but it's still a detective game. (Imagine if Dinocop was called Sherlock Bones. That would not be a good name.)

A lot of you were asking for it : Dinocop is now playable on Mac computers !

Have fun apppleheads !

Bugs in the PC version were also fixed.

Courtesy of Rawrzer Records, you can now download Dinocop's OST on the Steam Store and listen to those banger beats everywhere, at anytime ! The package includes 4k wallpapers of the game.
