Features / Changes

  • Updated the code from the (kinda) latest Chrome version.
    • Restored 5 Olympic sport game modes.
      (After the birthday event, the Chromium team has decided to obfuscate new sprites before launch. This means you cannot datamine the image files, and if you miss out the event, you won't be able to play the new mode. You can check the commit history for the Dino game to see if they add anything new.)
  • Disable "Start slower" toggle as it doesn't work (apparently).
  • Preserve highscore. Use localStorage to save and retrieve high score.
    • The original code uses native code from Chrome to retrieve and store score.
  • Reset highscore by clicking/tapping on the HI score twice.
  • Arcade mode. The game adapts to the screen width like the Chrome version (chrome://dino). Beneficial to big screens.
  • Day & night cycle. Game will start in night cycle if the users choose the dark theme in the OS/browser setting.
    • Dark theme / Night cycle mode uses color value defined in --google-grey-900
    • Fixed the bugs related to invert filter.
    • Also fixed dark mode for Firefox.
  • Use other pixelated filters for other browsers so the game looks consistent across browsers.
  • Gamepad support.
  • PWA support. You can install this game as an app to play offline.
    • This is useful on mobile platforms since you cannot open index.html directly like PC.
      On iOS, you need to use Safari and add the page to the homescreen.
  • Fix the game not working in iOS/iPadOS Safari browser.
