Dyna Gear

Dyna Gear hurls players into a prehistoric world teeming with danger in this action-packed platformer from Sammy. Two time-traveling starships crash-land on an Earth-like planet 65 million years ago, and it's up to the heroes—Roger, a time patroller, or Wolf, a bipedal wolfman—to confront the threat of Gustaf, who has transformed local dinosaurs into aggressive combatants. Players navigate scrolling stages filled with these dinosaur enemies, battling through destructible environments while searching for weapon upgrades and health boosts hidden within wooden chests. The gameplay combines platforming challenges with run-and-gun action as players utilize a double-jump ability to reach new areas and avoid hazards. Occasionally, Wolf will join the player in single-player mode to provide assistance. Each stage culminates in a confrontation with a large "boss" dinosaur that must be defeated to progress through the game's campaign. Hidden secrets await those who explore thoroughly; one such discovery is an entire shoot 'em up stage where players take control of a miniature dinosaur. Throughout Dyna Gear, observant players can also uncover cameo appearances from characters originating in Sammy’s earlier title, Survival Arts.
