About the Game

TriceraTreasure Tom, a.k.a. TTT, had everything a space-faring dinosaur pirate could want: fame, fortune, his own ship (Water Princess Mark II), and a crew that was, admittedly, not great, but at least his. Life was good. Plundering was excellent. The sea shanties were tolerable.

Then the Broccolites hit. Monstrous, rotting plant-creatures that consumed everything in their path, the invasion scattered TTT's crew across the Inner Space and left him adrift, broke, hungry, and forced to accept shelter aboard a rival ship.

The S.S. Waterqueen. Captained by his oldest rival, Captain Ankylarrgh.

The position offered to TTT: janitor.

Starting from the very bottom of the Dinopirate food chain, TTT must prove himself through increasingly dangerous, and increasingly ridiculous, missions. Each run, you battle endless hordes of Brocolites across the Inner Space, building outrageous combat loadouts from a mix of paleolithic weapons and cutting-edge dino-technology.

As your Dinopirate Level climbs, your former crewmates start paying attention again. Win back their trust. Earn your rank. And when the time is right, mutiny.

Fueled by the spirit of 90s action cartoons, absurd, loud, and never afraid to commit to the bit, Dinopirates from Inner Space blends fast-paced roguelike gameplay with a story that somehow makes you root for a disgraced dinosaur janitor fighting his way back to pirate captaincy.

Key Features

  • Top-down action roguelike with deep build customization every run

  • Climb the Dinopirate hierarchy from janitor to captain

  • Wild weapon combos: bone clubs meet plasma cannons, paleolithic meets dino-tech

  • Rescue defenseless Crew Members scattered across the Inner Space

  • Permanent upgrades and progression between runs

  • A universe built on absurd humor with genuine narrative stakes

Wishlist on Steam — the mop can only hold TTT back for so long.
